Four performances in three days
Hot Wheels Monster Trucks Live: Glow-N-Fire runs at Ariat Arena from November 13 to 15, 2026. The arena publishes four start times. Friday November 13 starts at 7:00 p.m. Saturday November 14 starts at 11:30 a.m. and again at 6:30 p.m. Sunday November 15 starts at 1:30 p.m.
The start time sets the nights a household books. The Friday show needs a Friday night. The Saturday 11:30 a.m. show, the Saturday 6:30 p.m. show and the Sunday 1:30 p.m. show each need the Saturday night. A household that takes two shows books both nights.
The pre-show party sets the arrival hour
Every performance carries a Pre-Show Party. The arena prints four windows: 4:30 p.m. to 5:45 p.m. Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 10:15 a.m. Saturday, 4:00 p.m. to 5:15 p.m. Saturday and 11:00 a.m. to 12:15 p.m. Sunday.
Each window opens two and a half hours before its performance. The party gives access to the arena floor. Drivers sign autographs. Each party ticket includes an autograph card for party attendees, and passes sell while supplies last.
A Friday ticket puts a family inside at 4:30 p.m. A 3 p.m. hotel check-in leaves an hour and a half before the party opens. The Saturday 11:30 a.m. show puts the arrival at 9:00 a.m., and a 3 p.m. check-in lands six hours after the doors.
Three VIP packages
The 2026 tour sells Full Throttle VIP, Pedal to the Metal VIP and Start Your Engine VIP. Each package includes Pre-Show Party access and official merchandise. Full Throttle adds front-row seats, a backstage tour with the show host, and a meet and greet with a Monster Truck driver and an FMX driver.
Each package ties to the party window of its performance. Ask the box office which window your package carries.
Seat price and parking
The arena prints Price Range: Varies and Start Time: Varies Per Day, then lists the four times in the event copy. Seat prices differ by section. Special kids pricing applies to all four shows.
Parking cost depends on the event. Guests pay with cash or a credit card at any lot. The Yellow Lots open for every arena event, and the 2,200-space Chevrolet Parking Garage sits at 3464 Trail Drive. Lots open three and a half hours before a show start.
Ask Ticketmaster or the box office for the seat price at the performance you pick. Ask the lot for its price at the gate.

The booking request
Name the performance, the party window and the checkout morning. Ask for the parking charge in writing. A Sunday ticket starts at 1:30 p.m. and runs past a standard morning checkout, so ask for a late checkout with the room.
Groups of 9 or more buy through groupsales@ariatarena.com. A family booking several rooms can put the party on one group request and hold the rooms against the performance.
Order of booking
Pick the performance. Set the nights from the start time. Set the arrival from the party window. Then book the room and confirm both charges.
