Was a great show, great experience, good staff!!!

What an utter rip off and waste of a car journey.

This is held on an abandoned (?) Airfield. Poorly staffed and unclear where to go.

It was nothing more than a travelling fun fair.

1 monster truck, which was 20 minutes of q&a followed by 10 minutes of driving. Stunt bikes were meh.

Nowhere to sit at all.

There were fairground rides at £5 a go.

The food was basic and extortionate.

As a family of 4, who had spent £75 for the tickets alone, then the same again on a burger, a drink and a ride each I feel totally ripped off.

The organisers are laughing at us.

One star is honestly generous.

We attended Monster Truck Motorfest at Haydock Park Racecourse on Sunday and it was a complete waste of money. The event was advertised as a big family motor show, but in reality it felt like an expensive fairground with a few very short, repetitive displays thrown in.

The actual shows were disappointing, started late, and did not seem to follow the advertised itinerary. The performances were extremely brief and repetitive, with very little that felt genuinely “monster truck” related. It was also deafeningly loud, even with ear defenders on. My son is autistic and we could not stand anywhere near the quad bike/motorbike displays because the noise was unbearable.

The worst part was the cost once inside. After already paying for entry, everything else was charged separately at ridiculous prices. £6 for hook-a-duck for a cheap toy is just one example. It felt like a money sink from the moment we arrived.

We left early because staying would have meant spending even more money for very little value. The whole experience felt badly organised, overpriced and completely misrepresented. I would not recommend this event to anyone, especially families with children who are sensitive to noise or crowds.

Customer service is very disappointing. I’m desperately trying to get hold of them regarding confirmation for an upcoming event that I have paid for and I have messaged on all platforms and absolutely no response. They have read two of my Facebook messages and still no response
Please help!

Amazing atmosphere,great shows, cool mascots, stalls,good food what else could you ask for a perfect day out . A ride on a monster truck for a extra cost but definitely worth it for the experience . All stunts excellent. Plenty of porta loo's which was a bonus . Lots of fair rides for younger kids and afew for older (fairly expensive) but to be expected at a festival type event . See you again next year. Perfect location

Was the first time when my family and I participated to the Monster Truck and was very nice experience. We enjoy properly!

Amazing day! Monster trucks were brilliant! Opportunity to actually have a ride on one. Plenty of loos, lots of different food, free parking and friendly staff. Would definitely do it again

We attended RA Monster Events at Haydock Racecourse on Saturday and unfortunately left feeling very disappointed.

Before the event, communication was extremely limited. We were given basic timings, but very little information about what to expect on the day. Had we known there was no seating available and that the ground would be uneven and unsuitable for sitting on, we would have brought our own chairs. Better information beforehand would have helped families prepare properly.

Tickets cost £72 for our family of three, which initially seemed expensive, but we assumed that would cover most of the experience apart from food and drinks. What we actually arrived at was essentially a large fairground, which is great as we love a fairground, however almost every ride required an additional payment of £5-£6 per person, per ride. This quickly became very expensive.

Food options were plentiful and looked good, but the prices were shocking. £12 for a chicken wrap is simply excessive and poor value for money.

The biggest disappointment was the “monster truck” element of the event. We only saw one monster truck, and it did very little. Most of the main arena entertainment consisted of a one-man motorbike display. Our son loves monster trucks and was really excited beforehand, but he quickly became bored because there simply wasn’t enough monster truck action. The event marketing created expectations that were not met.

The monster truck ride, which many children would understandably want to experience, was another extra charge at £10 per person. Given the already high ticket price, this felt unreasonable and I felt this should have been included in the ticket price.

There were some positives. Our son enjoyed meeting the Transformers characters, and the food selection itself was good. However, there were not enough toilets, resulting in long queues throughout the day. The event space also felt cramped and overcrowded, making it uncomfortable at times.

By the end of the day, we had spent almost £100 on top of the £72 ticket cost. For what was advertised, the experience simply did not deliver value for money. The marketing made the event sound far more impressive than the reality.

Sadly, we wouldn’t attend again and would not recommend it to other families unless they are prepared for significant additional costs on top of the ticket price.

Went to Monster Truck Motor event at Haydock Park. The shows were good but considering it was a monster truck event, there were only a couple of them. The rest were bikes/ quads.
Paid £70+ for three tickets, one of which was for a three year old - £20+ for a 3 year old is a rip off.
Loads of fairground rides and food vans. Well overpriced on top of the £70+ already paid to get in. Almost £16 for two pints of Madri.
Entertainment was a woman singing which sounded awful.
There was a different song playing at every single fairground ride, which were all fairly close to each other - all really loud. It was so overstimulating and way too loud. Couldn’t hear any of my family talking. No need for all the fair music to be played that loud and I’ve been to many fairgrounds. Had to walk away just to hear ourselves speak. Was like a club!
Alright to experience it once to try it out but I won’t be booking another event.

Lovely day with the family ❤️ lots of different activities to do and of course we came for the monster trucks and biking. Put on a really good day rained a little but we didn’t let it spoil our day. Highly recommended ✨

£60 to enter basically an egg and spoon fairground who then want £5-10 per ride, disgraceful, I feel absolutely conned, we stayed for an hour and then left

Honestly I’m not one to write reviews and if I could give it zero stars I would. Extremely disappointing, I would not class this as a monster truck show, 1 monster truck which actually weren’t great and one motorbike on that massive field there was more talking than actual stunts and again sticking one leg out or doing no hands isn’t exactly a stunt. Which then meant our little boy was more interested in the fairground rides and wow awful thank god we only had one child with us I felt sorry for the poor families who had 3 or 4 children with them on top of the £20 ticket price each rides ranged from £4.50 up to £6 which is extortionate to be quite honest so each ride was costing us £10-£12 because our little boy wouldn’t have been able to go on alone £10 they charged for my husband to take my son on the fun house. Honestly really upset and angry we only stayed for 2 hours once we realised we’d spent what we would usually spend to spend the whole day at Alton towers in 2 hours we decided to cut our losses which was a shame because we’d bought these tickets for our little boys birthday, but lesson learnt! Basically paying to step into an overpriced fair.

Basically paid £60 for 2 adults and a child to get into a giant fun fair then to be charged £5 per person on each ride terribly overpriced. Also the monster truck show and bike shows were very very underwhelming they seemed like an add on to the fair instead of the other way around. Left after 2hrs

Same as other reviews unfortunately. Only one monster truck. Rides were £6-8 each food stalls extortionate not to mention that there is zero seating anywhere.

I’m heavily pregnant and took my little boy we left after an hour as there was nowhere for me to sit down. I tried to sit on a step near one of the rides and was asked to move.

Online says they bag search - nobody could even be bothered scanning our tickets. Once we got in people were smoking weed and all sorts.

Have tried to contact the company with no response.
They’ve got good marketing I’ll give them that!

Don’t waste your money.

Edit - I did get a response on instagram to be told ‘if you wanted a seat you should’ve brought your own’

How they can call this a monster truck event bemused me. Yes, there was a monster truck giving rides round a field, which you pay extra for but as for expecting to see them crush cars etc, you may be sorely disappointed. It was mostly motorbike stunt riders (who were really bad btw) and the monster truck only gets in the arena twice at each event. When we went, there was a small pile of cars and the first time it came out, it literally was over and done with in a flash. The second time, it went over the cars twice, broke it's suspension and that was the end of the show. Our 5 year old, truck-mad Grandson was thoroughly bored. The fairground rides were at least £6 per person. Overpriced food stalls. You end up paying to keep kids occupied. Save your money and go somewhere else!

*We are all saying the same thing, yet you are choosing to opt for an ambiguous reply saying that our views are subjective. It is not subjective when we are the majority.

I would've thought that you would know the date and time of the event considering that the date of experience was entered for the review! I will clarify though, as it appears you may be blinkered, 16th May 2026.

The fairground, as I said previously, was overpriced. A testament that has been given by many others. If you believe that charges are from £3 per person, you need to get off your backsides and check what is actually getting charged.

I certainly will add photos of the monster truck. You are LIARS and SCAMMERS.

The cost of living crisis affects parents the most and you are literally taking advantage of people just trying to entertain their children. Despicable.

IN RESPONSE TO THIS, I RECEIVED AN EMAIL FROM TRUSTPILOT THAT RA MONSTER EVENTS HAD SAID that they have flagged your review for containing harmful or illegal content

...TO GET MY HONEST REVIEW TAKEN DOWN. TRUSTPILOT REVIEWED MY POST AND REINSTATED IT.

🙃 All said and done, we are all saying the same thing. You are taking advantage of people. Next stop Trading Standards. You are advertising an event all over social media and it fails to deliver on the marketing.

There was one monster truck. I feel like I've absolutely been conned, I spent close to £60 on three tickets to attend a fair where all the rides were completely overpriced. Don't waste your money.

Not someone who usually leaves reviews but was so disappointed with today’s event in Haydock. We had planned to stay all day to enjoy the full schedule of shows, however had to leave after barely 90 minutes of being at the venue.

Positives - friendly staff, plenty of parking, plenty of options for food/entertainment. First Monster truck/ bike show was good.

Negatives- absolutely zero seating which meant you were on your feet constantly (not even anywhere to eat your food- People were having to sit on the floor just to eat with their children.) Floor was uneven and rocky making walking difficult (obviously Haydock’s fault, however it wouldn’t be great for someone who may struggle with mobility), soaking wet bouncy castles which meant the kids were walking round in wet clothes (5pound per child for 10 minutes), Toilet queues weren’t great.

As many people have said, the fair rides are expensive and in between shows it’s what the kids want to play on. Within 90 minutes we had spent almost 100 pound for 2 children to go on a few things and we couldn’t justify staying any longer to wait to see the monster truck show finale.

After paying for the shows, the additional cost becomes too much to spend on 1 day out.

The event was busy, so it just felt like the pricing of rides was just greedy. We would have stayed longer if the value would have been better. It was such a shame because I feel like this has such potential for a great day out.

Can’t say it was the most exciting and best stunts show unfortunately. For the monster truck show there was only one monster truck doing the same stunt over and over jumping over 4 cars and most of the show was watching the truck and the digger realign the cars for the next same jump. Don’t expect much ‘flying’ from the bikes. It seemed more about the big over priced fair with motorsport stunts as a side line act. The only act worthwhile was Steve on his bike (but even that was let down by the organisers as couldn’t fully hear what Steve was saying with the poor positioning of speakers).
Been to the M&S arena Monster truck show in Liverpool and that was a much better show, where there’s loads of monster trucks, a better show and bikes actually do fly high in the air. (And no fair and music pop acts blaring out the speaker systems around the place!). Spend your money on that instead if you’re looking for exciting car and bike stunts.

Had a lovely day out here with the kids. Would highly recommend and will be returning in the future!

£75 for a family ticket, you get there and its basically a massive fairground ride where all the rides are an absolute rip off...especially the hook a duck at £6 a go for a £1 toy. One monster truck, and another that carries 8 for a ride a long at £10 each. The stunt bikes were "ok". The 1 star is deserved by the wrestlers who were very entertaining.
