Each day, the excitement begins at the Monster Jam Pit Party where fans can see the massive trucks up close, meet their favourite drivers and crews, get autographs, and take pictures. Activities include the Sand Box play area, UNOH tire demonstration, colouring and temporary tattoo station, and new photo ops, including the chance to take a photo with the Series trophy. This is the only place that allows people to get up close access to the Monster Jam teams and get an insider’s look at how these trucks are built to stand up to the competition.
Fans are encouraged to get to their seats early to experience Monster Jam Trackside approximately one hour before the event start time. Featured festivities include competition previews, driver interviews, giveaways, opening ceremonies and power rush truck introductions.
Monster Jam drivers are trained, world-class male and female athletes who have mastered not only the physical strength and mental stamina needed to compete, but the vital dexterity to control 12,000-pound machines capable of doing backflips, vertical two-wheel skills and racing at speeds up to 70 miles-per-hour to produce jaw-dropping, live motorsports action seen around the world.
Truck Lineup
Grave Digger®, Great Clips Mohawk Warrior®, El Toro Loco®, Megalodon®, Earth Shaker, Monster Mutt® Rottweiler, Velociraptor and Jurassic Attack; drivers will be announced at a later date.

Lime Scooters Launch in East Vancouver
Unlike in some cities where the scooters can be picked up or drooped off at any location, Vancouver’s parking stations were designed to make a clear end-of-trip location while keeping streets safe and uncluttered.
Over the next year, Lime will expand its program to other neighbourhoods, working closely with the City to monitor feedback and coordinate with local community partners. Lime will also make shared micromobility more accessible to riders in Vancouver who are facing financial hardship by offering 2,000 Lime Access $20 annual memberships with $0 unlock fees and a discounted $0.15/minute usage fee for riders that meet the Lime Access program conditions.
