The Monster Jam event is taking over the King Fahd International Stadium in Riyadh on March 17 and 18.

Brought back to the Kingdom by the General Entertainment Authority and organized by Feld Entertainment Inc. and Live Entertainment, this world famous live motorsport further expands the choice of entertainment options available to citizens and residents of Saudi Arabia. Tickets can be purchased at Munch Bakery outlets, the Fire Grill restaurant and online at www.TicketmasterKSA.com for as little as SAR30.

For decades, Monster Jam has been one of the biggest and most successful touring shows in the United States and around the world. The show will feature legendary drivers in four-meter tall, five-ton Monster Jam trucks. Built for short, high-powered bursts of speed, the vehicles generate 1,500 to 2,000 horsepower and are capable of speeds of up to 100 miles per hour. Monster Jam trucks can fly across 130 feet, a distance greater than 14 cars side by side, and up to 35 feet in the air.

Amr AlMadani, CEO of the General Entertainment Authority, said: “As we continue on our journey to build the entertainment offering in the Kingdom, the General Entertainment Authority is proud to support one of the best live motorsport shows in the world. With tickets starting at SAR30, the event is a great example of affordable and accessible entertainment in Saudi Arabia.

“Monster Jam is just one of a number of upcoming events that the General Entertainment Authority is helping to bring to the Kingdom that cater to all groups in our society and at an affordable price. More exciting announcements will be made in the coming weeks and months.”
