In 2018, the event was changed back to a two day weekend due to schedule conflicts. This not only allowed Monster Jam to make two different tracks for the same event as the first one would be racing track and the second being a track exclusively for freestyle, but also allowed teams more time to make repairs if their truck crashed in racing. The first day would have the same events from before while the second day would solely be for racing, while the third would be for freestyle. After this, the same festivities from before would then continue.įrom 2014-2017, the two day weekend would be revamped into a three day event.
The Double Down event would now host the yearly Young Guns Shootout wherein select rookie drivers with no World Finals experience would be able to enter the lineup by winning a racing bracket, but not in 2012. Since 2001, a special Encore performance would conclude the event.įrom 2012-2013, the World Finals would have a small update.
The following day, the competitions would occur as each driver would compete in Racing and Freestyle on this day.
The amount of trucks in the Pit Party would continue to grow from year to year. It would also hold the biggest Monster Jam Pit Party that features trucks excluded from the event's competition lineup and is solely for display, along with fan interaction. The first day, named the "Double Down Event" would have Qualifying, where each driver earns their own spot at the racing bracket (Starting in 2005, the top 12 would automatically advance to round 2, then this was bumped down to 8 in 2006, and dropped all the way down to 4 in 2013). Since then more and more tours' were created and even more drivers have the ability to get a chance for a spot at the World Finals.įrom 2000-2011, the event was split into two days. Most of the drivers who get to invited at the World Finals are selected based on their performance throughout the season however in 2015, Monster Jam introduced new points series' wherein drivers can get themselves automatically inducted into the lineup by winning. The World Finals will be held in Nashville, TN in 2023. The event was also well-known for being hosted in the Sam Boyd Stadium in Las Vegas, NV for many years since the inaugural event until 2018, when Monster Jam announced a rotational schedule which signaled the departure from Vegas, with the first venue outside of Vegas being in Orlando, FL. Monster Jam World Finals XX added on non-monster truck competitions, including the Speedster Racing and Speedster Obstacle Course by the Monster Jam Speedsters, and ATV Racing by the Monster Jam ATV'S, but have since been removed. Originally, only 2 World Championships were awarded, for Racing and Freestyle, but this has grown to 4 (previously 7) championships with the addition of Two-Wheel Skills and High Jump. It features the largest monster truck lineup of any Monster Jam show. The event is the pinnacle of each Monster Jam season, which is the finale of the Monster Jam's first quarter season and is arguably the most anticipated monster truck event each year.
The Monster Jam World Finals are an annual event held in the US promoted by Monster Jam.
