Get ready for the wildest, funnest, most exciting event our region has ever seen with the 3rd annual Wind Farms and Vineyards Bud Break Festival; Monster Truck Show! This event was a major hit the last two years and with two years under our belt, we are going even bigger this year! Our largest shows to date, this event features *4 world class monster trucks*, mini monster truck action, professional lawn mower racing, children's Power Wheels competitions, a monster ride truck, as well as bounce houses, slides, games, and fun activities for kids! The line up and times are scheduled to be the same for both show dates, Saturday April 27 and Sunday April 28! Overkill Evolution previously beat literally every other monster truck on the planet on his way to being crowned MONSTER JAM WORLD FINALS FREESTYLE CHAMPION and will put those skills on display for Eastern Virginia. Monster Truck HALL OF FAME member Mike Vaters, who has over 30 years of storied driving experience, will pilot Black Stallion. Those 2 veterans will join newcomer, War Wizard, and hometown favorite Walking Tall for an amazing line up of action! Gates open at 1pm for the Bud Break Festival. Kids can enjoy bounce houses, slides, and other fun games and activities while adults enjoy food and drinks, including our award winning Wind Vineyards wine and sangria! The amazingly fun Grape Crusher MONSTER RIDE TRUCK will take daring folks for a thrilling ride and give them a taste of what it is like to be on board a real monster truck! (additional fee required for ride truck) The Wind Farms Gem Mine will also be open where folks can purchase a bag of mining sluice and sift through to find guaranteed treasured stones! At 3pm, get up close and personal like no other show you can find at our FREE Pit Party! Check out these beastly machines and allow your kids to touch the monster trucks, get autographs from the drivers and take photographs! At 4pm the track will clear and engines fire as the real show begins! The monster trucks will start and soar through the air as they crush cars, show off skills, take on jumps, and perhaps daringly leap a full size school bus! Grand Slam mini monster is sure to be your child's favorite as 13 year old driver Tyler Wind II shows off his skills in this kid sized 1/3 scale monster truck! Professional lawn mower racing will run their championship rounds and an old school modified demolition derby with real cars will entertain fans. For a small $10 entry fee, your child can have a part in the show by participating in the Kids POWER WHEELS competition (kids must bring their own battery powered vehicles--more details to follow). 

ALL FANS MUST REMAIN BEHIND THE BARRICADES DURING THE EVENT, with the exception of the Pit Party and when action stops for the Power Wheels competitions! Last year we had 2 trucks lose a tire, 3 trucks flip over, and a car catch on fire. It is absolutely imperative that you do not sit on barricades, keep your distance, and stay alert! Seating is limited so feel free to bring your own chairs, blankets, and other seats. Umbrellas and tents are allowed in CERTAIN areas that will be set back from the barricade in order not to obstruct the view of other fans. This show is rain or shine. All ticket sales are final.
