The roar of motors will fill the air of Grandview this weekend, as their annual Mudbog returns.

A wide variety of vehicles will be tearing up the dirt for a chance at $10,000 in prizes. Quads, side-by-sides, snowmobiles, and all sorts of suped-up vehicles will be flinging mud at this event.

So long as the driver maximum hasn't been met, you can still check in a competing vehicle upon arrival.

Jill Wiebe, an event organizer with the Mudbog says there will be a lot more than just the vehicles for entertainment, however, as the weekend also has all sorts of live music and other attractions. 

"There are kids events, free swimming, scavenger hunts, we have a farm coming out. We'll also have helicopter rides this year, Prairie Helicopter is coming out just depending on the weather. We'll have 2 concerts on Saturday night and a mechanical bull there so you can take that in too."

The musical lineup features cover band Pop Vegas for the opening ceremonies on Friday and Saturday has Almost Famous to cap off the night.

Wiebe also noted that ticket sales ahead of the weekend are already very high, and the event is expecting to see 1,500 people attend, which is roughly the population of Grandview itself!

General parking will be freely available, but if you're looking to stay for the weekend, there are fully serviced and non-serviced campsites available. 

There will also be a selection of food trucks and beer gardens on location open during the weekend.

Passes to attend for the weekend are $50 for adults, $25 for youths 13-17, and kids 0-12 get in for free. If you're looking to attend just for a single day, the prices are $30 for adults, $15 for youths, and kids will still get in free.
