TWO New SoCal Truck Debuts – First Ever Anaheim Appearances!

The full-throttle, ramp-smashing powerhouses of Monster Jam^® and Tech Deck^® have come together to launch the newest Monster Jam truck, Tech Deck® Wreck Deck™.  Inspired by the fearless world of skateboarding, this truck treats the stadium like a massive skatepark, catching big air like it’s hitting a vert ramp, stomping landings, and going for the coolest tricks.  This limitless and resilient Monster Jam truck was first unveiled at the X Games in Salt Lake City this summer ahead of the marquee Monster Jam World Finals^® XXIV event where the truck grinded down a 60-foot rail as the epic Kickoff Stunt (check out the stunt video here). 

Making the first-ever SoCal debut appearance, say hello to the Bailey Circuit™ Monster Jam® truck – the big-wheeled best friend with a nose for adventure! Inspired by Ringling’s® fan-favorite robotic pup, the latest addition to Monster Jam’s fleet comes thanks to a first-of-its-kind collaboration between The Greatest Show On Earth® and Monster Jam. Bailey Circuit is here to chase down big air jumps and fetch some fun for the whole crowd. Tail wags included!  

Feel the Thrill of Full-Throttle Fun

Get ready for big-time entertainment as Anaheim roars to life with gravity-defying stunts, heart-pounding races, and plenty of big air!  The world’s best drivers tear up the dirt as they battle for the Event Championship in three competitions: Racing, Skills, and everyone’s favorite, Freestyle, where Monster Jam trucks defy the laws of physics and do the impossible.  Fans will be right in the middle of the action, helping to crown the Event Champion as they get to score the drivers in real time based on their skills, stunts, and saves.

Start the Fun Early at the Monster Jam Pit Party®

The day of fun starts at the Monster Jam Pit Party® on both Saturday and Sunday each weekend – your first stop for selfies with the trucks, high-fives and autographs from drivers, and family-friendly activities. It’s the perfect way to start a day of adrenaline-charged fun, plus get an insider’s look at how these 12,000-pound trucks are built to stand up to the competition.  The Monster Jam Pit Party – where the fun begins.

Don’t Miss the Monster Jam Trackside Experience There’s no better way to get ready for the action than Monster Jam Trackside, happening about an hour before the event. It’s packed with driver interviews, pit crew sneak peeks, and epic giveaways that’ll get everyone pumped up before the action begins. Then, watch as the opening ceremonies set the stage for one-of-a-kind fun for the whole family!

Meet the Superstars of Monster Jam!

These aren’t just any drivers – they’re world-class male and female athletes who have mastered controlling these 12,000-pound beasts. Whether pulling off insane backflips, nailing vertical 2-wheel tricks, or tearing up the track in all-out racing, these drivers are ready to wow fans with the most mind-blowing live motorsports action around.

The competition is fierce as 12 top drivers battle it out for the Stadium Championship Series West title and a coveted spot in the Monster Jam World Finals® in Salt Lake City, Utah, on July 4th weekend. You’ll be on the edge of your seat watching the world’s most popular trucks and drivers like Tyler Menninga in the legendary Grave Digger®; Ryan Anderson, celebrating 15 years of Son-uva Digger® in 2026; the 6-ton unicorn with a bold attitude, Sparkle Smash® driven by Kayla Blood; Bryce Kenny behind the wheel of the new Tech Deck® Wreck Deckä; plus the debut of Bailey Circuit™, the all-new Monster Jam truck inspired by Ringling’s fan-favorite robotic pup.  You can’t get this kind of wow just anywhere!

2025 LA BikeFest
BikeLA hosts its 4th Annual LA BikeFest Fundraiser Happy Hour and Celebration of bike-minded people from daily commuters to weekend warriors, and everyone in between. A Pedal-Powered Party where attendees are encouraged to ride to and from LA BikeFest via the healthiest, happiest, most sustainable, and equitable transportation available – the BICYCLE. Taking place on Saturday, November 15 from 12 p.m.–3 p.m. at Highland Park Brewery, a hop, skip and roll from the Chinatown Metro station, the event is open to all ages, but you must be 21+ to be served beer. The $25pp ticket (purchased in advance; $35 at the door if capacity allows) includes free bike valet, one beer or non-alcoholic drink, a commemorative sky blue BikeLA bandana, and our biggest yet bike-themed silent auction.

Join fellow BikeLA supporters, local chapter members, and Angelenos with the shared desire to transform Los Angeles into a better place to live and bicycle. Come together for a relaxed afternoon of good vibes, great company, and tasty brews. In addition, BikeLA has announced this year’s three 2025 Spoke Award Honorees who will be honored at this year’s BikeFest:

Hugo Soto-Martinez, Los Angeles City Council for the 13^th District, was born and raised in Los Angeles. His parents immigrated here and worked as street vendors to give Hugo and his five siblings more opportunities than they had in Mexico. As a child, he took pride in building and riding his own bicycles. For 16 years, Hugo organized with UNITE HERE! Local 11, fighting alongside mostly immigrant women in the hotel industry to win better wages, healthcare, and respect on the job. Since his election to City Council in 2022, Hugo has worked to build community power and bring the voice of working people into City Hall. In 2024, Hugo opened his first ever protected bike lanes in Hollywood, as part of his landmark “Access to Hollywood” project.

BikeLA commends Metro staff for the Rail to Rail Path, a new 5.5-mile path for walking, biking and rolling in South LA that connects the K Line at Fairview Heights to the A Line at Slauson Station. Outfitted with five Metro Bike Share Stations at: Denker & Slauson, Vermont & Slauson, Figueroa & Slauson, Avalon & Slauson, and Compton & Slauson these stations installed in May 2025 connect the communities along the Slauson corridor with affordable bicycles.

ActiveSGV, founded in 2010 by San Gabriel Valley residents and public health advocates, addresses the lack of safe, green, complete streets in east Los Angeles County. The organization has led over a dozen active transportation plans, launched one of California’s first Traffic Diversion Programs with the El Monte District Court, and organized eight regional open streets events, including the 626 Golden Streets (2017) and ArroyoFest (2023). ActiveSGV also created the region’s first monthly e-bike share program, GoSGV.com (2022), built the Merced Avenue Greenway bikeway (2024), and expanded green space in El Monte – advancing a more sustainable, equitable, and livable San Gabriel Valley.

Plus, special partner acknowledgements to Streets are for Everyone (known as SAFE) started by cyclist Damian Kevitt as a movement for safer streets after he was hit by a car and nearly killed while riding his bicycle in Griffith Park. SAFE is a non-profit organization celebrating their 10^th Anniversary with an aim to improve the quality of life for pedestrians, bicyclists, and drivers alike by reducing traffic fatalities to zero; and Highland Park Brewery for graciously hosting BikeFest for the past three consecutive years.

Bike LA’s honorees are passionate, dedicated, and collaborative in making Los Angeles a more bikeable region for everyone.

“BikeFest is more than a bike celebration — it’s a statement about the kind of Los Angeles we’re building together,” explains Eli Akira Kaufman, BikeLA executive director.  “Every time someone chooses to ride, they’re choosing cleaner air, safer streets, and stronger connections among our communities. BikeLA exists to make that choice easier for everyone, in every neighborhood, every day.”

Highland Park Brewery will have a bar in a designated area where additional beer can be purchased as well as offering a special menu (including a vegan option) available for purchase. 

This year’s BikeFest Gold Helmet Sponsor is Waymo, making it safer, more accessible, and more sustainable to get around – without the need for anyone in the driver’s seat; the Silver Helmet Sponsors include Tranzito-Vector, working hard to expand bus shelter structures with better design and amenities to serve the lived experience of all Angelenos, Bicycle Transit Systems, with over a decade of supporting shared mobility in Los Angeles; and  Lyft, growing on-demand, scheduled ahead, late night, or morning commutes by bicycles; Bronze Helmet Sponsors are Laemmle Charitable Foundation, making the family’s vision of a sustainable community a reality; Lime, expanding the world’s largest shared electric fleet; and Serve Robotics, building the next generation of autonomous sidewalk delivery robots.

Silent auction donors for bike-themed accessories include Spurcycle; Patagonia; Yakima; Tern; Road Runner bags; ABUS; Kryptonite and more.
