The ‘Monster Truck Nitro Tour’ Is Coming To Bangor In May

As they say in the commercial, the ground is already ssssshhhhhhhakin'!

It is time to get back out there and enjoy life again. A summer of live music, sporting events, food festivals, and other fun things to do await all of us, and one very popular event returns to town in May, that the whole family can enjoy.

Bangor will be the motorsport entertainment epicenter with the nation's most competitive Monster Trucks, as they rock the Cross Insurance Center, for the Monster Truck Nitro Tour, which hits town for three big shows, on May 13 and 14.

Check out incredible 10,000-pound, car-crushing trucks compete in racing, wheelie contests, and killer freestyle action. Plus, you can see the trucks up close and in person at the pre-show Pit Party. The highlight of the event will be Galactron vs. Reptar, and the crowd favorite, CrushStation, will be back as well.

Here is the breakdown for showtimes:

Friday, May 13th 7:30pm (Pit Party 6pm-7pm)
Saturday, May 14th 1:30pm (Pit Party 12pm-1pm)
Saturday, May 14th 7:30pm (Pit Party 6pm-7pm)
