Buckle your seat belts. Monster Jam is roaring its way back to the Alamo City in January.

The monster truck spectacular is touring as part of its Arena Championship, stopping in San Antonio on the Series West leg of the contest.

Monster Jam will make a two-day appearance at the Alamodome on Saturday, Jan. 24, and Sunday, Jan. 25. The tour features trucks including the world-famous Grave Digger, driven by Matt Cody, and El Toro Loco, driven by Armando Castro.

The Alamodome competition will feature three categories: Racing, 2 Wheel Skills and the fan favorite Freestyle.

Fans will be directly involved in the event, tallying scores for drivers in real time to crown the champion, according to organizers. Drivers will throw down to win the Arena Championship Series West title, vying for a spot in the Monster Jam World Finals next year.

Tickets are now available exclusively on Ticketmaster for those signed up to be a Monster Jam Preferred Customer. Don’t fret if you’re not part of that crowd. Tickets drop for everyone on Tuesday, Sept. 16.
