A new Hot Wheels Monster Trucks show is coming back to Abu Dhabi
Abu Dhabi, buckle up – because the monster trucks are roaring back into town and this time, they're on fire.
After a turbo-charged run with last year's Glow Party, Hot Wheels Monster Trucks Live is returning to Etihad Arena on Saturday September 27, 2025, with a brand-new theme: Glow-N-Fire.
Expect all the gravity-defying stunts, jaw-dropping jumps and truck-smashing madness – but now with even more pyrotechnic punch.
Think flashing lights, roaring engines and a healthy dose of fiery flair produced by Family Entertainment Live and powered by Live Nation Middle East, DCT Abu Dhabi and Miral.
Fan favourites like Mega Wrex, Tiger Shark, Bone Shaker and the legendary Bigfoot are all revving up for the spotlight, along with newcomers like the colossal Skelesaurus, who's ready to unleash some fossil-fuelled fury.
Oh – and don't miss the fire-breathing, car-eating robot Articgon making a dramatic return to the arena. It's monster truck chaos, with added combustion.
Before the engines even roar to life, fans can go all in with the Power Smashers re-show Experience. Two and a half hours before the show, you'll get the chance to walk the arena floor, snap selfies with the epic trucks and meet the drivers. Every pass includes a souvenir lanyard, autograph card and exclusive goodies.
If you really want to live the Hot Wheels life go for the VIP backstage experience that lets you see what happens before the trucks hit the track. It comes with bonus merch and early entry to the Power Smashers bash.
Monster madness, neon lights and a whole lot of heat? Count us in.
Dhs145. Sat Sep 27, Etihad Arena, Yas Island, Abu Dhabi.
