King of the Hammers (KOH) has announced tickets for 2025 are now available. Each year over 80,000 fans converge on the rugged terrain of Johnson Valley, California, with millions more tuning in online.
What began as 12 teams battling for bragging rights and a case of beer has grown into an iconic and celebrated event, featuring hundreds of teams seeking that elusive first-place trophy and title of King.
For a limited time, the first 5,000 tickets are available at a discounted rate of $50 each. After these early-bird tickets sell out—or after Sept. 30—the price increases to $75 through January 1, 2025.
Starting January 2, 2025, and throughout the duration of the event, tickets will be $100. Purchasing a ticket gives spectators full access to the Hammertown vendor show and surrounding spectator areas while also helping fund essential services, entertainment and race purses.
KOH is the birthplace of the global Ultra4 Racing series and a showcase for the wildest 4×4 vehicles on the planet. From the unlimited 4400 class, which combines high-speed desert racing and extreme rock crawling, to rapidly growing categories like UTVs, stock-modified vehicles, and even electric vehicles, there’s a competition for everyone. 
Whether racecars are hand-built by drivers or sponsored by major factory teams, each one embodies the relentless determination that defines the sport.
The 2025 King of the Hammers is set to kick off on Jan. 23 and runs through Feb. 8, 2025, in Johnson Valley, California.
