Monster Jam in the Olympic Stadium of Barcelona

The Monster Truck show "Monster Jam" is on their world tour at the moment. On Saturday the 24th of October they will stop in Barcelona to offer an amazing show. It will be the first time that this show will take place in Spain. If you spend your holiday in Barcelona within this time you should not miss this event.

GraveDigger2_682_797566a.jpgThe show will include Monster Trucks, Freestyle bikes and a Harley Davidson show. All the most known Monster Trucks including their famous drivers will come to the Olympic Stadium on the Montjuic. These 3 meter high Monster Trucks will give a great show including risky actions that just professionals are able to do. You have to experience a Monster Truck with its 4 tons, jumping on cars and making them flat. These jumps can take a distance of approximately 30 meters.

The show includes two parts, the racing competition and the freestyle competition. In the racing competition two Monster Trucks will race against time at the same time, trying to reach the finish line as the first one. During that race they have to jump above several cars. In the freestyle competition the Monster Trucks have a limited time to show spectacular movements like long jumps, destroying cars and unique stunts.

A special part of the Monster Jam show is the Pit Party, where the audience gets an insight behind the Monster Truck show. This part of the program takes place before the big show. Here you will have the opportunity to meet the drivers and see the Monster Trucks up close. You can check out all the details of your favorite Monster Truck and besides that you can get autographs from the drivers.
