Hot Wheels Monster Trucks making its last trip to Nassau Coliseum in January

|

Hot Wheels Monster Trucks Live returns to Nassau Coliseum in January for what organizers say will be the tour’s final appearance at the venue, bringing a new truck and several first-time stunts to Long Island.

The tour, produced by Family Entertainment Live, will introduce “Rhinomite,” a rhino-themed monster truck making its debut in 2026. The addition follows the success of the 2025 Glow-N-Fire show, which received Pollstar’s Family Show of the Year award.

The January shows will include new stunts performed by the Hot Wheels Monster Trucks and FMX riders, including a No-Handed Front Flip that has not been featured on the tour before.

Returning trucks include Mega Wrex, Tiger Shark, HW 5-Alarm, Bone Shaker, Bigfoot and Skelesaurus. A fire-breathing, car-crushing robot dinosaur will also be part of the program, organizers said.

Here are the dates and times for the three shows scheduled at Nassau Coliseum:

  • Saturday, Jan. 17, 12:30 p.m.
  • Saturday, Jan. 17, 7:30 p.m.
  • Sunday, Jan. 18, 2:30 p.m.

Tickets and additional information are available here.

Each performance will be preceded by a pre-show party offering floor access and driver autographs. A separate VIP backstage experience includes a guided behind-the-scenes tour and access to the pre-show event. Both add-ons will be available in limited quantities, organizers said.
