Monster Jam 2022 - Columbia, SC

Special thanks to the Columbia SC Mommy Blogger Tribe and Monster Jam for hosting us.

Monster Jam is here in Columbia, SC and you still have time to see a show! If you’re looking for a last-minute family-friendly outing this is perfect to add to your to-do list. The last show is tomorrow, April 3, 2022, and you can purchase tickets here; the show is being held at the Colonial Life Arena.

This was my first Monster Jam show and I really had no idea what to expect. My son loves all types of trucks and I knew this would be right up his alley. When he saw all of the monster trucks driving around the arena he was amazed and that made it worth it. We brought the entire family and they all enjoyed it. Seeing the cool designs on the trucks and getting to watch the drivers do their thing was fascinating.

This brought back memories for my husband, he hasn’t seen a show live in the last 10 years and it was even better than he remembered. Monster Jam has been around for 30+ years – it’s a completion of large “monster” trucks showing off their skills on the dirt. Monster Jam turns the event into your hands by allowing you to vote for your favorites based on performance.

Tips for visiting a Monster Jam Show

Monster Jam travels all over the United States, keep an eye out if they are coming to a city near you. See the schedule here.

1.      Wear something comfortable you may have to do a lot of walking.

2.      Bring ear muffs or noise-canceling headphones – it can get pretty loud. There are some available for purchase at the event.

Our favorite drivers of the night were Kayla Blood (Solider Fortune), Bari Musawwir (Zombie), and Tyler Menninga (Grave Digger). We are already looking forward to the next show!  Check out a quick video clip from the show.
