A Hot Wheels Glow-in-the-Dark Monster Truck Party is Coming to Portland, Maine, in October

For so many of us, part of our childhood includes playing with Hot Wheels miniature cars and trucks. The thrill of playing with those toys has become generational, with people of all ages having their favorite. But what if your favorite car or truck could grow up, too? In some ways, that's exactly what's happening with Hot Wheels hitting the road for a massive nationwide monster truck party, including a stop in Portland, Maine, this October.

For their stop in Portland, Hot Wheels will bring a new twist to the monster truck show. The event will be a "glow party", meaning your favorite Hot Wheels monster trucks will make the inside of the Cross Insurance Arena come alive with massive amounts of bright colors.

Some of the most popular Hot Wheels monster trucks will be on display in fierce competition. That includes Mega Wrex, Boneshaker, Tiger Shark, and the infamous Bigfoot. But it won't just be your favorite heroes either. The fire-breathing and car-eating Megasaurus will also make a lively appearance during the glow party. There will be stunts and battles.

Beyond the thunder of the monster trucks, every Hot Wheels glow party includes a laser light show, high-flying motocross superstars, as well as Hot Wheels giveaways throughout the show.

For superfans of Hot Wheels and monster trucks, the Crash Zone upgrade is available for the Portland shows. With the Crash Zone upgrade, fans will get to visit the competition floor prior to the show to see some of their favorite trucks up close and personal.

The Hot Wheels Monster Truck Glow Party will have three shows in Portland. Two shows will be on Saturday, October 14, and one matinee show will be on Sunday, October 15. Each show lasts roughly two hours. Check out what you can expect at a live Hot Wheels Monster Truck Glow Party in a video shared on YouTube by Automotive Mike.
