Fresh off its 2025 run, which earned the prestigious Pollstar Family Show of the Year award, the tour is building serious momentum heading into 2026.
This year’s headline act is Rhinomite, a dynamite rhino-themed beast charging horn-first into competition.
Built to dominate, the new truck explodes onto the scene with a mission to crush, smash and outmanoeuvre the rest of the field.
Fans can expect plenty of returning favourites too, as iconic Hot Wheels Monster Trucks are brought to life in spectacular fashion.
Mega Wrex™, Tiger Shark™, Gunkster™, Bone Shaker™, Bigfoot®, and Skelesaurus™ will all take to the arena floor, performing never-before-seen stunts designed to push the limits of what these mechanical giants can do.

Adding to the heat is an all-new No-Handed Front Flip from the FMX riders, a jaw-dropping move guaranteed to have crowds on their feet, alongside high-flying motocross action and a fire-breathing, car-crushing robot dinosaur.
For those wanting to get even closer to the action, the Pre-Show Party offers an exclusive opportunity to step onto the arena floor two and a half hours before each performance.
It’s a chance to see the trucks up close, snap photos, collect autographs from drivers and performers, and receive a special autograph card available only to Pre-Show attendees.
There’s also a VIP Backstage Experience for fans keen to see what happens behind the scenes before the smashing and crashing begins.
Guided by the show’s hosts, the tour includes up-close access to the trucks, a VIP merchandise bundle and entry to the Pre-Show Party.
With multiple showtimes across the weekend, Glow-N-Fire is shaping up to be one of Abu Dhabi’s most explosive family events of the year.
From AED145. 19-20 September, Etihad Arena, Abu Dhabi. For further information, visit abu-dhabi.platinumlist.net
