What's on 2024
Big Pete & the Grim Reaper Monster Truck Show
Weighing in at 7.5 tons this awesome machine is built for one reason only – mass destruction! Big Pete is one of Europe’s largest Monster Trucks with a full size American truck body and is now partnered by the Grim Reaper.
This is a chance to watch two real Monster Trucks at work jumping over cars and crushing cars and caravans. Jumping 15ft in the air is an impressive sight for any event, crushing anything in its path.
See two Monster Trucks working alongside each other doing a tug of war pulling a car or a caravan in two. Guaranteed to be a big favourite with the audience. Action packed performance with amusing and entertaining radio commentary by the driver throughout the display.
Between displays the public are invited to meet the team in the holding area and a chance to have your picture taken with a real monster truck.
