Monster Jam 2026

Monster Jam™ Roars back into Principality Stadium Next Spring with the UK Debut of Sparkle Smash™ 

Cardiff is gearing up for an action-packed display of motor sports on Saturday 16th May 2026.  

The return of Monster Jam™ to Principality Stadium is set to wow Cardiff with high-flying action and family entertainment. One of the world’s most iconic live motorsport events will once again transform Wales’ national stadium into an adrenaline-fueled arena, complete with roaring engines, jaw dropping stunts and unforgettable memories for fans of all ages. 

This year brings extra excitement as Cardiff hosts a UK first, the debut of Sparkle Smash™. A six-ton unicorn truck that’s said to be known for its ‘bold attitude, known for its fierce competitive spirit and larger-than-life personality.’ 

Monster Jam’s™ 12,000-pound trucks will deliver unmatched live spectacles, with world class drivers competing in racing, skills and the fan favourite freestyle, which sees the trucks perform tricks, flip, soar and push the limits of physics.  

Fans will also play a key role at Principality Stadium, with live voting giving the audience the power to score the drivers in real time.  

The action kicks off early with the Monster Jam Pit Party™ on the stadium floor, allowing fans the chance to get up close and personal with the iconic trucks, meet the drivers and snap photos. It’s the ultimate pre-show experience and a rare opportunity to discover how these legendary machines are engineered.
