Monster Jam Coming Back to Buffalo This Weekend

All of the families are excited that Monster Jam is returning to Western New York this weekend at Key Bank Center from February 20 to 22, 2026.

There are 4 shows that are happening this weekend:

• Friday at 7 PM
• Saturday at 12 PM
• Saturday at 6 PM
• Sunday at 12 PM

You can still buy tickets to each show and there are even some opportunities for certain shows to do a post-event driver meet and greet!

In addition, the Saturday shows will have something really cool where you can bring the kids and go to the Pit Party, and take pictures with the trucks:

Start the day at the Monster Jam Pit Party®—your first stop for smiles, selfies with the trucks, high-fives from drivers and family friendly activities', it mentions on the website.

Not only will your favorite monster trucks be there, like the legendary trucks Grave Digger, El Toro Loco and Sparkle Smash, but fans can expect to see some of the wildest stunts from the motocross team as well.

The team will get to town early to fill the Key Bank Arena with dirt and get it ready for the show. In case you are wondering about where they get the dirt for Monster Jam, when Monster Jam gets into town they go get local dirt on site. How much dirt is used for each Monster Jam show? About 60 dump trucks worth will fill up the floor of the Key Bank Center.

Pro Tips:

• Bring a jacket when you go to Monster Jam. It might be just slightly more chilly than a hockey game, mostly because the ventilation will be increased in the arena because the monster truck give off the truck emissions.
• Get their early because the intro of the trucks is one of the most exciting parts for the kids.
