Family events in Knob Noster, MO

Hot Wheels Monster Trucks Live powers into the T-Mobile Center with a fresh wave of action following Glow-N-Fire, which earned Pollstar’s 2025 Family Show of the Year. A new headliner rolls out in Rhinomite, a rhino-themed machine built to charge past the competition. The show introduces all-new stunts from the monster trucks and features a signature FMX moment with the No-Handed Front Flip. Fan favorites come to life on the floor, including Mega Wrex, Tiger Shark, HW 5-Alarm, Bone Shaker, Bigfoot, and Skelesaurus. The adrenaline keeps building with high-flying freestyle motocross and a fire-breathing, car-crushing robot dinosaur. Special pricing for kids is available at every performance, making it an easy pick for a family outing.

Enjoy an all-ages gathering of open board gaming at Our Spot KC. Bring a favorite game to share or choose from the house collection. One-shot Dungeons and Dragons sessions may pop up from time to time, and game masters interested in running a table can get in touch. The venue is served by bus routes 75, 71, and Prospect MAX. Accessibility features include a wheelchair ramp and off-street parking, and there are all-gender restrooms. Snacks will be on hand, and the event is open to all.

A guided tour is available for visitors who want a more in-depth look at the collection. A guide will lead the group, offer context, and point out details that can be easy to miss when exploring on your own. Capacity is limited to 40 participants, and the experience typically lasts around two hours, with the exact length shaped by the group's level of interest. Standard admission fees still apply. Large groups should call ahead to arrange a reservation as they normally would.
