Great Clips and Monster Jam® partnership

Select markets in 2016 and 2017 to witness the new truck in action

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. (November 16, 2016) Great Clips announced today a partnership with Feld Entertainment® that will bring Monster Jam® and the world’s largest salon brand together. This partnership will include a new name for the fan-favorite Mohawk Warrior® Monster Jam truck to the Great Clips Mohawk Warrior for select markets. Up-and-coming Monster Jam athlete Bryce Kenny will unveil the new truck design at Minneapolis’ U.S. Bank Stadium on Saturday, December 10, 2016. Kenny will then pilot the new Great Clips Mohawk Warrior truck on the Monster Jam Triple Threat SeriesTM West presented by AMSOIL, debuting in Salt Lake City, UT, on January 7, 2017.

“We are excited to join Monster Jam as a sponsor of the Mohawk Warrior truck,” said Terri Miller, Great Clips Sr. Vice President of Marketing and Communications. “The tie to hair is a perfect fit! The series and its brand are a powerful partner to help Great Clips reach a young demographic. We are starting on the West Coast and look to expand our footprint to more markets as we activate our assets.”

“For the first-time ever, a salon sponsor has signed on to support Monster Jam and we cannot be more eager to see what the future holds for both this sponsorship and Bryce Kenny as he pilots the Great Clips Mohawk Warrior truck in 2017,” said Jason Bitsoff, Senior Vice President, Global Partnerships, Feld Entertainment. “Great Clips is the perfect fit for bringing the world’s largest salon brand and Monster Jam together.”

“I am thrilled to represent the Monster Jam family and be a brand ambassador for Great Clips as the driver of the Great Clips Mohawk Warrior Monster Jam truck,” said Kenny. “This is a huge opportunity to show the power of the Monster Jam community and support an amazing organization that clearly supports the Monster Jam fans. Great Clips is now officially part of the Monster Jam movement for 2017 and there is no better group than the Mohawk Nation to spearhead this next chapter for the sport we all love.”
