Monster trucks on a roll

There will be monster truck madness in Melton these school holidays.

Buster the rides truck will be visiting Woodgrove Shopping Centre as part of four truck displays and special activities between October 2 and 8.

Kids will get to ride in a truck of eye-popping proportions and check out the mini monster truck, dominator stunt car and dirt bike as well as a monster truck jumping castle and the monster patrol truck display.

Woodgrove centre manager Kylie Robertson said that taking a ride in a monster truck will be a rare opportunity.

“To date the public have only been able to watch these giant trucks from arms-length in action at shows and competitions, now they can actually climb aboard,” Ms Robertson said.

“It is our mission to bring rare and exceptional experiences such as this to our community. We love witnessing our visitors going home at the end of the day with new memories that have brought their family closer together and smiles to their children’s faces.”

Visitors are advised to come early outside the Bank of Melbourne and Jetts Fitness entrance of Woodgrove Shopping Centre to beat the queues.

Viewing will be between 11am and 4pm. Entry is $5 per ride per person.
