Review of RA Monster Events
Unfortunately we found this to be quite poor, it is called a monster truck show but the main event lasted around 10 minutes max ( x2) and the only other trucks were giving a ride around a field, the majority of the venue was a fun fair

Review of RA Monster Events
This event was an absolute disgrace and in my opinion was close to being fraudulent.
The "Monster Truck Event" consisted of a single Monster Truck that we had to wait for three hours to see.
The Half hour show then consisted of 20 minutes of a talk by the driver which was inaudible due to the poor PA system. For the final 10 minutes the singular Monster Truck drove round the field three times and performed the same jump four times over the same pile of car wrecks in the centre of the field and that was it.
Food and attractions were minimal and vastly overpriced for the completely captive audience.

Review of RA Monster Events
Absolutely terrible event. Stayed for 1.5 hours. Saw 5mins of monster trucks. No motorbikes. Monster truck rides were charged at £10pp. No deals on fairground rides. Food options absolutely shocking and extortionately expensive. Parking was also £10 per car. Do not waste your money!

Review of RA Monster Events
Pricing was ok but would have appreciated free carers, Monster Trucks of the plural sense not singular sense, the display was good but thought it was meant to be more than one, the motorbike display was good but thought there was meant to be more than one. Monster Truck ride was great but would have preferred a bit longer for the price, food was absolutely gross and yucky, cold burger and chips greasy as hell overpriced, gave me a bad belly the next day. Overall it was mediocre really.

Review of RA Monster Events
It was absolutely awful. The worst thing was it was advertised as a Monster Truck event and there was only 3. We arrived after 12pm (because of the queues to get into the event) and had missed the solo monster truck display, we were then told the next time it would come out was 4pm, a ridiculously long wait in the cold with children. There were two other monster trucks you could ride on for £10 each which went round a field and didn't seem particularly exciting and you were crammed on with other people. The music playing around the site was incredibly loud and hurt my sons ears, I have no idea why it needed to be so loud especially when mostly kids were present. The fairground attractions were fine but overpriced. We also count understand why there were such long queues into the event, it was so badly organised. It was such a disappointment and when we asked our 4 year old if he liked the monster trucks he replied "what monster trucks?" which summed it up perfectly.

Review of RA Monster Events
Was mis-sold as "stunts that leave you wanting more" and even viewed comments from them on Facebook saying each show would be an hour long. In reality it was a 5 minute show of the bike/truck doing the same trick over and over. We paid for parking that wasn't checked. Fairground was overpriced. Was a complete scam!

Review of RA Monster Events
Was miss sold £6 parking as it was free. Monster trucks were on 4 hour time slots for all of 5 minutes, the rest was over priced fairground rides and over priced food (£5 for chips) AVOID!

Review of RA Monster Events
This was a badly managed event from car management on the roads entering the venue to the idea of it being a monster truck event that actually only has a monster truck display twice a day that lasts 2 minuets and 30 seconds. The prices for food and children's rides were a complete rip off. In-between display shows there was nothing to keep the children entertained unless you want to pay exceptionally high prices. Why i had to buy an entry ticket and pay for parking i don't know, when not one person checked my ticket to see if i had paid.
Over all this event was completely advertised falsely and not only i but every other person who attended the event that i know, will never go to one of these again.
