I’d been to probably 100 monster truck shows before I saw Monster Jam at Empower Field at Mile High in Denver last summer, and I had no idea what I’d been missing my whole life. There is nothing like giant 12,000 pound monster trucks being able to get the kind of speed they get in a football stadium to do tricks, jumps and shake all the seats in the house.

Good news, the biggest and best monster truck tour in the world, Monster Jam, is coming back to Mile High this summer!

The 2026 Monster Jam Stadium Tour will stop at Empower Field at Mile High in Denver on Saturday, May 9.

A 7 p.m. main event will be preceded by a Monster Jam Pit Party on the stadium’s south lawn where guests can see the trucks up close, take pictures, meet the drivers and get autographs.

Venue presale goes live Thursday, February 12, at 10 a.m. Tickets go on sale to the public Tuesday, February 17, at 10 a.m.
