Very cool day out but the funfair rides were very expensive - would have been great to have a wristband style option.

Poor show

Review of RA Monster Events

I was disappointed that only one Monster Truck was doing the public display. And this consisted of driving over a pile of squashed cars several times. I actually enjoyed the motorbike display more than the Monster Truck display. My son enjoyed the fairground, so this made up for the disappointment over the Monster Truck. However, some of the rides were pricey. And the food was extortionate!

Review of RA Monster Events

One monster truck was available
Sound quality and music was poor
Funfair rides were awful and not like the ones in previous pictures or videos
Bike stunt show was not a show or stunts as such with one family car being jumped over continuously
No programme guide to say show timings and tickets and parking not checked on the gate
Terrible queues to get in as traffic combers we're not experienced in guiding traffic
All in all a complete shambles

Review of RA Monster Events

I'm sorry but I felt the event lacked in several areas. Starting with a lack of information; pre show I could only find a list of times for the shows with no descriptions of what thet were we had to assume at a Monster truck event, that each show would include the truck. However we turned up for the 14:00 show only to find that it was a Stunt Rider instead. A great show, but sadly one I have seen before.
I spent £42 on the tickets and carpark for my partner and I (we came in 2 cars as we live an hr apart) and for that we saw a 30min Motorcycle stunt show as there was really nothing for us, as adults, to do, if we had of waited to see the Monster Truck show at 16:00. We were only able to gain this information by speaking with the woman on the merch stand.
On an environmental note I was disappointed in the lack of bin facilities, there was simply litter everywhere and no litter pickers in sight attempting to deal with it, on a windy day like Sunday who knows how far into the countryside it will spread.
I only leave this negative review in hope that the organiser takes this onboard for future events.

After spending over £50 on tickets I thought then asking for an extra £40 for us to go in the monster trucks when there was an absolute rip off. I was left with 2 very disappointed and upset children. I thought it was included in the value of the tickets. Also needed more monster trucks.

I think the advertising should be better as I had full price for a 2 year old when I didn't have too.
There wasn't much there to keep kids entertained but the cars where amazing

Review of RA Monster Events

Dirty with rubbish everywhere. Hardly any motor truck shows. Nightmare to get in. Wouldn't go again

Review of RA Monster Events

It was a rip off event. The monster truck show lasted approximately 10 mins of actual driving and that consisted of just driving over 4 cars repeatedly. Then there was nothing else included in the ticket price for another 1hr 45 until the next show. We ended up having to battle between either super expensive fairground rides or unhappy children as they had nothing to do when money wasn't being spent.
The site became filthy as there were no bins just bin bags left on the floor. The toilets were not maintained and became disgusting.
It was a very disappointing event and we would not repeat it.

Review of RA Monster Events

This event was a complete and utter rip off. There was 1 monster truck that did a 20 minute show with the most of this being talking! The rest was an over priced fun fair with nothing to keep people entertained between the next show happening 2 hours later. We were expecting the event to showcase more than 1 monster truck even if this was just for people to look at. We paid £6 to park in a field that was being shared by the car boot sale and the parking was completely unorganised. We were incredibly disappointed and feel the event completely mislead people and was just a money making scam. Why this was advertised as a monster truck show I do not know it was mostly just the fun fair. Completely false advertisement.

Stunts not very long. There wasn't any information as to when the next stunts would be. There was big gaps in-between the monster truck stunts and the Dirt bike stunts.
Fair ground rides were horrendously over priced. Food vans well over priced.
Paid for parking on a field and hearing others hadn't as car boot was on same day. Wouldn't book again unfortunately
