KABOOM! delivers a totally unique Independence Day bill of fare — great for families, neighbors, friends, in fact anyone who enjoys an upbeat and exhilarating patriotic show complemented by FMX riders and monster trucks, an insane myriad of stunts, thrills, chills and really big tires that create plenty of adrenalin-charged dust.
Pyro Spectaculars of Rialto, the premier fireworks company in the nation, shows
up and fires up the pyro like no one else. They’ve been with KABOOM! since 1986 when it began as a day-long event. This year’s tribute is themed Celebrating Freedom.
Exploding freestyle motocross; FMX riders that direct airborne motorcycles and execute somersaults and flips, and are most often physically separated from their bikes - are heart stoppers Jimmy Fitzpatrick, Vince Morgan, Julian Dussea, Nick Dunn and Jeff Griffin. Then come the monsters, trucks that is, the biggest names in the industry, including Bounty Hunter, Playing for Keeps, McGruff, Obsessed and Obsession. The crowd goes crazy with each dirt-stirring spin and jump. Just to add to the spectacle the audience can cast votes for their favorites.
KABOOM! is a ton of fun, evidenced by the fact it’s been a sold-out event every year since 2002 when it switched to a nighttime format. Ticket prices remain unchanged since 2008, $19.50 for box seats, $17.50 for trackside bleachers and $14 for general admission seating. Ages 2 and younger are admitted free. Tickets are available starting May 10 online at www.fairplex.com and at the kiosk at Fairplex Gate 1; beginning June 28 to July 2, noon-7 p.m., at Fairplex Gate 1; weekend hours beginning June 26-27, July 3-4, 10 a.m.-5 p.m. (unless sold out).
