MotoNurk now has its own stage!

With the support of the Local Initiative Programme (KOP), MTÜ MotoNurk acquired mobile stage platforms that can be assembled into a 6 × 4 metre stage.

But the new stage is not intended only for the MotoNurk museum. Our goal is to make this stage infrastructure accessible to other local non-profit organisations, groups and community initiatives as well. We will therefore offer the stage for use on favourable terms for other events in the region.

Our aim is to make organising events in Narva and Ida-Viru County easier and more affordable, and to help bring more great events to our region.

Soome-ugri ratas 2026

Finno-Ugric Wheel Brought Together Culture and Traditions of Different Peoples

On May 16, 2026, the cultural event "Soome-ugri ratas 2026" took place in Narva near the MotoNurk motorcycle museum, introducing the public to the songs, dances, folk games, crafts and culinary traditions of the Finno-Ugric peoples. The six-hour program took place on the historic Gloria bastion, between the MotoNurk museum and the Narva Art Gallery, and was part of the nationwide Museum Night celebration.
The event aimed to show that Virumaa's folk culture belongs to a broader Finno-Ugric cultural space, whose peoples are united by historical roots, traditions and ways of cultural expression.

Retro Custom Show

Retro & Custom Show 2023

The shine of chrome, the roar of engines, and the retro atmosphere! In Narva, a new event made its debut - Retro & Custom Show. This event became a true celebration for all fans of retro vehicles and custom style. The esteemed motorcycle club Magnum MC Narva, with extensive experience in organizing motor events, acted as the organizer. The former workshops of a freshly renovated furniture factory provided the perfect venue for the event, creating a unique atmosphere and embodying the spirit of retro. On-site, there were fascinating workshops, live music, and even a tattoo salon and a barber, taking care of the style and appearance of the visitors. Special thanks to Magnum's chefs for their culinary magic!
