Monster Jam – REVIEW
Monster Jam Thrills in Sunrise with a Night of Roaring Engines and Jaw-Dropping Stunts.
August 11th, 2024
Monster Jam roared into Sunrise, FL, and brought with it a lineup of eight beastly trucks that had fans on the edge of their seats. The night was packed with adrenaline-pumping events, including racing, a two-wheel skills challenge, and the ever-popular freestyle competition. The trucks—Kraken, Just Get Er Done II, Excaliber, El Toro Loco, ThunderROARus, Monster Mutt Dalmatian, Megalodon, and the legendary Grave Digger—put on a show that left the crowd cheering for more.
What made this Monster Jam event even more special was the presence of two incredible female drivers, one of whom happens to be the sister of Excaliber’s driver. It’s not just the monster trucks that steal the show; the drivers bring their unique flair and skills to the table, making each event feel fresh and unpredictable. And as a bonus, the halftime show featured daredevil motorcyclists launching off ramps, pulling off tricks that had everyone in awe.
The emcees kept the energy high throughout the night, engaging with the audience and keeping the excitement levels through the roof. A unique twist at this event was that the scoring wasn’t left to judges but handed over to the fans. The crowd got to go online, enter a code for the night’s events, and score each driver after every performance. This interactive element made the event feel even more unscripted and thrilling, with the audience actively shaping the outcome.
The stunts pulled off by these massive machines were nothing short of spectacular. Trucks soared through the air, balanced on two wheels, and in an unforgettable moment, Monster Mutt Dalmatian executed a flip that had the entire arena buzzing. Watching drivers skillfully balance their trucks on two wheels and maneuver them forward and backward up and down inclines, was mind-blowing.
While Grave Digger took home the win for the night with consistent performances across all events, it was Monster Mutt Dalmatian‘s epic flip during the freestyle competition that stole the show. Driven by a woman, this daring move was the highlight of the evening and had everyone talking.
By the end of the night, Monster Jam had the entire audience on their feet, cheering and clapping for more. The crowd was a diverse mix of all ages, with many young fans sporting earmuffs and wearing their favorite truck’s merchandise. It’s clear that Monster Jam has something for everyone, making it an ideal event for families.
After experiencing the electrifying action firsthand, I’m already planning my trip to the Monster Jam World Championships next year in Salt Lake City over the July 4th weekend. If Monster Jam rolls into your town, do yourself a favor and get tickets—you won’t want to miss it!

Luli Fama celebrates its Paradise Found Cruise ’27 swimwear and resortwear collection with a luxury Miami launch at its Dadeland Mall boutique.
August 20, 2026
Miami swimwear favorite Luli Fama is stepping into Cruise ’27 with Paradise Found, a new swimwear and resortwear collection inspired by tropical escapes, exotic prints and effortless vacation glamour.
South Florida Insider has already taken a closer look at the Luli Fama Paradise Found collection, and it feels made for Miami.
The new Cruise ’27 collection combines the bold, body-confident swimwear Luli Fama is known for with elevated resort pieces designed to move effortlessly from the beach and pool to cocktails and dinner.
On Thursday, August 20, Luli Fama will celebrate Paradise Found with an exclusive evening at its newest Dadeland Mall boutique in Miami, complete with fashion, light bites, personalized surprises, and a luxe espresso martini bar.
Inside Luli Fama’s Paradise Found Cruise ’27 Collection
Paradise Found is inspired by the feeling of discovering a hidden tropical retreat.
Think lush landscapes, warm golden hour light, exotic patterns, and silhouettes made for somewhere beautiful.
The collection features Luli Fama signatures, including flattering ruched details, seamless construction, adjustable fits, and statement swimwear, alongside an expanded selection of resortwear.
We especially love the pieces that blur the line between swim and ready-to-wear.
Flowing dresses, sleek coverups, and body-skimming silhouettes make it easy to transition from a sun-drenched afternoon to an evening out without losing that relaxed resort feeling.
It is sensual, polished, and unmistakably Miami.
Luli Fama Brings Luxury Resort Style to Miami
There is a reason Paradise Found feels so natural in South Florida.
In Miami, resortwear is not reserved for vacation.
A swimsuit can become part of an outfit. A coverup can take you to lunch. A flowing resort dress can carry you from an afternoon by the water straight into cocktails and dinner.
Luli Fama has always understood that lifestyle.
Paradise Found takes it a step further, creating a Cruise ’27 wardrobe that feels as appropriate for a tropical getaway as it does for a weekend in Miami.
The campaign captures that mood beautifully, pairing the collection with palms, lush greenery, tropical architecture and the kind of sun soaked setting that makes you want to extend your vacation indefinitely.
Paradise Found Comes to Luli Fama at Dadeland Mall
Luli Fama will bring the world of Paradise Found to life on Thursday, August 20 from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM at its newest boutique at Dadeland Mall in Miami.
The intimate celebration will bring together invited guests, influencers, celebrities and media for an early look at Cruise ’27.
Luli Fama is also dressing invited guests in pieces from the brand, allowing the new collection to be experienced the way it was designed to be worn: in motion, styled and out for the evening.
Luli After Hours Espresso Martini Bar
Fashion is only part of the experience.
For the Paradise Found celebration, Luli Fama is introducing Luli After Hours, an Espresso Martini Bar inspired by the glamour of the collection.
Guests will be able to sip three specialty espresso martinis created for the evening.
The Luli Babe puts a polished spin on the classic espresso martini, while Golden Hour pairs salted caramel with edible gold shimmer. Miami After Dark takes a richer approach with chocolate hazelnut and a cocoa dust finish.
Along with cocktails, guests can expect light bites, curated details and a special personalized surprise.
The result feels less like a traditional retail event and more like checking into a private resort for the evening.
A Miami Swimwear Brand Celebrates at Home
For a brand with such a strong connection to South Florida, launching Paradise Found in Miami feels especially fitting.
Luli Fama has built its identity around colorful, confident swimwear and resort fashion with a distinctly tropical point of view.
Paradise Found carries that identity into Cruise ’27 while giving it a more elevated, escapist mood.
And with Luli Fama’s newest boutique now at Dadeland Mall, Miami shoppers have another destination to experience the brand in person.
After getting our own closer look at Luli Fama’s Paradise Found Cruise ’27 collection, we can safely say the name fits.
Paradise has officially been found, and this time, it is in Miami.
