Only 1 monster truck for the whole event which had broken down before the event even started (at 10am) only to be fixed for 2pm by which the queue to ride was enormous and then it broke again! Not a single show featured a monster truck as promised. My 2 year old still had a good time and great in theory but definitely should have had a back up truck and should definitely be offering a partial refund to everyone who attended as £30 per person for a monster truck event with no monster trucks is awful. No one seems to be getting any replies to their emails or Facebook messages regarding this and negative comments are being deleted from their page instead of being addressed.

Really waste of money
One monster truck which just sat there and a couple of bikes which literally went up and down in a very small section of grass and a couple of wheelies and a jump over one car … food drinks and fairground rides definitely NOT worth the money. Absolutely wont be going again .. save ur money guys

A monster truck show with only 1 monster truck? Bike stunts or a few blokes doing wheelies? Singers that shouldn’t be near a microphone? And to top it off, the inconsideration of setting a display on fire, on dried out grass… after the terrible fires currently happening in the West Midlands. The guy who put it out using a fire extinguisher walked away as it reignited!! Thankfully another biker saw it and patted it out with his feet.

Absolute shambles, we left early.

Monster Truck Motorfest Birmingham — 16 August 2026
Thornborough Events Venue, Redhill Road, Kings Norton, Birmingham, B38 9EH

What a waste of money and what an awful event.

I paid £60 for tickets after seeing an advert full of monster trucks and impressive performances. None of what was shown in the advert was actually part of the show. In reality, there was just one monster truck giving rides to people, which looked highly questionable from a safety perspective.

For such a large event, I was also shocked that there appeared to be no ambulance or fire engine on site. The whole thing felt more like a massive, noisy and dirty funfair, with serious questions around the safety of some of the rides and the event overall.

The final straw was the motorbike stunt performance. It was not particularly spectacular, and as part of the stunt they poured petrol onto a construction structure built specifically for the performance and set it on fire. This was on a field surrounded by completely dry grass. It was genuinely scary to watch, particularly given the wildfire emergency in the UK at the time, when people were receiving emergency alerts on their phones. Even more concerning, it took them some time to get the fire fully under control.

This showed an astonishing lack of judgement and made me seriously question the safety standards at the whole event.

I really hope the relevant authorities look into the safety arrangements at this event.

We left after less than an hour.

Avoid. Definitely not worth £60 and not worth risking your safety.

So disappointed, didnt recieve a email to state there was no main event monster truck as advertised to sell the event, everything was running behind and the stunt shows were amature with the bikes just going in circles at best it was a small fair with local bikers called in last minute to help out. Please read my message and send a full refund as requested. As it was false advertisement. Never have i seen a "event" so poor. Also now deleting comments from their facebook page as everyone is extremely disappointed. Shame on you.

Good effort but poor value for money.

We attended this weekend, on a family ticket that was ~£70 or so, fair enough the event looked like it would be fun, and we had fun, it was a nice day, clearly effort is put into the event, but considering entry fee and the steep prices for the fair rides on top, it felt like very poor value for money

and the headline monster truck show was cancelled due to engine breakdown or something - now they did tell us in line, and they offered us free monster truck ride along tickets - but the queue was like 3 hours +....
they also said 50p off every ride / activity, but the prices were still rounded, £3, £4, £5 per go etc which is sus.

and speaking of fair ground prices, maybe im out of touch but it was so expensive, 2 little boys and me escorting them they wanted £15 for a walk through one of those crazy house type deals...
a tiny 2 min moving wall ride £3 each child.
bouncy castle - tbf really nice, large, kids had loads of fun, but £6 each for 8 mins... come on.

apart from the price the vibe was nice, and we did enjoy the few rides we could go on - but i couldnt justify spending so much money for what was just a day at the fair.
Instead of being able to enjoy the fair i found myself constantly calculating whether another 5 or 10 minutes of entertainment is worth another £10 - £15.

Ironically, if the rides and attractions were half the price, i suspect we would have spent about the same amount overall but come away feeling we'd have much better value, i mean we had fun but once you factor in the high admission price, the cancellation of the headline show, and the amount they are charging for typical fairground rides, i cant really recommend it.

At these prices, we wouldnt go again.

We attended today as a family of 4. My partner had only booked due to monster trucks being the main attraction for our 9 year old son. When we arrived we were told that we could either have a refund, or use our tickets to enter without a refund have a free ride on the monster truck that was there and 50p off all fair rides. During the day we had to pay full price for the fair rides £5 per ride so £20 a ride for us as a family. It cost a fortune to eat as the cheapest meal for our youngest was £9 and for the adults £13.50. The bike show in my opinion was too much commentary which our family soon became bored waiting for some excitement. The wrestling show was ok, the kids enjoyed that. Then the free ride on the monster truck, the que was all around the field, speaking to someone who was half way down the line they had been queuing for 2 hours! No thankyou. We spent £150 on rides and food and left. Never again. It was a complete scam

REALLY BAD DONT BOOK!! £75 for a family ticket for the 15th as it said until 10.30pm. Got here at 4pm and 6pm they told us they’re shutting! Plus monstertruck show not on as the truck aint working. AVOID

Terrible value for money. No monster trucks and overpriced rides

Turned up and tickets scanned then told that the monster stunt truck had broken down and wasn't going to be on. The whole point of going. Then went to check Facebook because they said to look for discounts availible due to this. That's when I saw the post saying the truck had broken down. It was posted an hour before I arrived, during which I was driving so could see it anywhere near in time. The post said if you had your ticket scanned then you're not entitled to a refund.

Charge back now requested through my bank with plenty of evidence.

Waste of money. Broken Monster truck, so no shows and ridiculously expensive rides!!

Due to unforeseen circumstances they would not issue me a refund or credit. Apaulling that an organisation don’t have customer service as a priority and are more interested in the money.

So Saturday 8th off August we bought a family ticket at a Blackburn event. When we tured up we was told it was cancelled. No email or anything. I paid a lot off money in taxis.the kids where upset.there was other people there.and they said there was a fb post to say the event was cancelled and was now in October. I dont won't to go in the cold thank you .massive disappointment. Thanks kids are crying 😢 now

❌️❌️ WARNING!! ABSOLUTE SCAM. WENT TO THE EVENT TODAY AND IT NEVER EXISTED!! LOADS OF FAMILIES TURNED UP TO EMPTY FIELDS ❌️❌️

Event cancelled with no notice to ticket holders.
‘Emails sent to people Thursday or Friday.’

No email in inbox or spam, no phone call, no message, nothing on website. Do not use Facebook where the only communication 24 hours prior to the event was an update.

Only found out by chance by googling if I would need cash for the AI overview to tell me it had been cancelled until October.

No reply on getting a refund as we can’t attend the new dates.

Very bad communication, will be booking for Hot Wheels instead next time as this has left me with no trust the next event won’t just be cancelled as well.

Newcastle Racecourse!

Incredible. We go every year. Absolutely love it.
We will be back again and again!

Loads of rides, for young and old.
Soo many food vans, Greek, coffee, chips, slush, sweets, rice bowls, Pizzas, alcohol etc.

Monster truck rides, they look terrifying haha! Im yet to have a go.

Stunt bike shows, dirt bike shows, monstertruck shows.

The foam party was insane, the kids loved it!

They dont let you down either, the monster truck show was unable to performe this year because it was broke, but we were informed about this and given a full refund, so this year we went for free basically. And it made absolutely no difference to our day as we didnt plan to watch that show.

Attended the Gosforth show. The monster trucks were "BROKEN"
We were attending for that very reason. There was no notification prior to attending the event. We heard this information when the first stunt bike show was on. The prices of things inside such as rides food and drinks are extortionate including £10pp to ride on the Monster truck which I might add we had to do as there was no monster truck shows and all we could do involving a monster truck.

We went to Great Yarmouth in September and since I keep seeing new adverts for this year I wanted to put my review in now. It’s advertised with a monster truck as the main feature but it only does a couple shows in the day. The rest of the show was cars or motorbikes so a bit of a let down when it’s displayed as more monster truck than anything else. Also, everything else is paid for on top of the ticket price. Food, drinks, rides are all pricey. The monster truck ride was great but only two of us went on it because of the price. The only ‘free’ thing was the characters that come out for photos.

We visited the Pickering Motor Show today after seeing it advertised as a "family friendly" event.

Family tickets were advertised at £30, but we used a discount code and bought two family tickets for £52.

When we arrived, we walked around the fairground rides. Most were £5 per child, although some didn't have prices displayed and we had to ask. We also looked around the food stalls, but were surprised by the prices – around £10 for a burger, £14 for a pizza and £7 for a sandwich.

We then took a seat by the arena. Unfortunately, there were no signs displaying show times, and despite searching online, we couldn't find a schedule there either. We waited for the BMX display, but it wasn't what we'd describe as "action packed".

After leaving the arena, we found more food stalls and a large number of stalls selling toys and market-style items. We later watched cars competing for the fastest time around cones, but again, it wasn't particularly entertaining for us.

The vehicle displays were probably the highlight of the day. The children enjoyed sitting in one of the vehicles for a photograph.

We then paid £40 for our four children to go on just two rides before visiting the monster trucks. There wasn't a monster truck show taking place – instead, rides were available at £10 per person, with children needing an accompanying adult. For our family, that would have cost £50 for around five minutes, so we decided not to do it.

By around 2:30pm, vehicles had already started leaving, and when we left at 3pm, parts of the event were already being packed away.

Overall, we were disappointed. We appreciate that others may have had a different experience, but we didn't feel the event offered enough entertainment to justify the cost, particularly for families. The lack of a published timetable also made it difficult to know what was happening and when.

We won't be going back and we won't be reccomending.
