Second Auckland show added for Hot Wheels Monster Trucks Live Glow-N-Fire
Jul 16, 2025Hot Wheels Monster Trucks Live Glow-N-Fire organisers have added a second show at Eden Park, Auckland on Sunday, 5 October, following overwhelming demand from thousands of multi-generational New Zealand fans.
Promoter TEG today confirmed that the Auckland 4 October event has officially sold the most tickets for a single show in the history of Hot Wheels Monster Trucks Live, which has toured across North America, Europe and Australia for the past seven years.
Priced just below $40 for general admission tickets, the show is proving to be a bright spot for families seeking affordable, high-value entertainment.
The entertainment company believes the ticket demand reflects an appetite for joy spending — experiences that offer meaningful family connection, nostalgia, and escape.
David Benge, TEG Content Partnerships Manager says, “The response from Aotearoa has blown us away — Auckland is now our biggest-selling show anywhere in the world. Kiwi families are proving that they will show up in massive numbers when the entertainment on offer ticks that perfect combination of boxes, fun, whānau and excitement. We couldn’t be more thrilled to add a second and final Auckland show to meet the overwhelming demand.”
Nick Sautner, CEO of Eden Park, says, “We’re delighted that Auckland has officially sold the most tickets for a single show in the history of Hot Wheels Monster Trucks Live — and Eden Park’s capacity and infrastructure have played a key role in making that possible.
“This is the first time a show of this kind has ever been staged in Eden Park’s 125-year history, and it reflects our ongoing commitment to delivering diverse, world-class entertainment for fans of all ages. Hot Wheels is an iconic brand that has fuelled imaginations for generations, and this event reinforces Eden Park’s reputation as a truly multi-purpose venue that offers something for everyone.”
He adds, “Despite current economic challenges, Aucklanders are clearly prioritising quality family entertainment. Hot Wheels has a unique cross-generational appeal — parents and even grandparents are reliving their childhoods while watching their kids light up. It’s exactly the kind of energy and joy the city needs right now.”
Based on the world’s best-selling toy, Hot Wheels Monster Trucks Live Glow-N-Fire features life-size versions of iconic Hot Wheels toys — including Bigfoot, Bone Shaker, Tiger Shark, and Mega Wrex — performing jaw-dropping stunts, fiery wheelies, and gravity-defying jumps, all under the glow of stadium lights.
For die-hard fans, the Pre-Show Party and Legends Backstage VIP Experience offer the chance to meet drivers, explore the arena floor, and get up close to the trucks.
Following the sell-out of the original Dunedin date, a second Forsyth Barr Stadium show was also added to the line-up earlier this year, making the New Zealand tour one of the fastest-growing in Hot Wheels Monster Trucks Live history.
The tour is presented by The Warehouse where one Hot Wheels car sells every 20 seconds.
