About Nord Fest 2025
What is NORD FEST?
First of all, this is a festival for bikers, organized by bikers!The idea of the festival belongs to the Nord Hird MCC motorcycle club. The goal is to unite lovers of motorcycles, the cultural heritage of the northern peoples and the history of Rus', high-quality folk and rock music, as well as travel and outdoor recreation with the whole family.
We traveled a lot to festivals and all kinds of gatherings and decided to make our own festival the way we see it. Having summarized and taken into account all the advantages and disadvantages of the events that we have seen.
NORD FEST is a motorcycle-Viking festival. A festival with a historical and ethnic spirit!
Why Viking?
Vikings are the personification of northern culture, travelers and discoverers! They are also a great example of building a community that cultivates values close to us: brotherhood, family, love of travel.

WHAT TO EXPECT FROM THE FESTIVAL?
The organizers of the Festival decided from the first event to rely on quality, providing not only a driving show program and good sound for musicians, but also a serious immersion in the history of our ancestors, presenting a reconstruction of the life of the ancient Slavs and Vikings, as well as an ethnic fair, an introduction to games and food of our ancestors.However, NORD FEST is not a reconstruction festival.
Despite the fact that the key theme of the festival is the theme of the Russian north and the Vikings, NORD FEST is not positioned as a reconstruction festival or a festival with a historical focus. For us, the Viking aesthetics are more of a pleasant and congenial setting.
NORD FEST is definitely not a pagan festival.
Speaking about the Vikings and the culture of our ancient ancestors, we, of course, cannot help but remember the pantheon of gods. From the wise Odin and the invincible Thor, to the generous Veles. However, for us, the deities of the ancient pantheons are, first of all, an integral part of the culture of our ancestors, whose memory we cherish and value.
We do not promote paganism. We don’t promote anything at all except the love of motorcycles!
The festival organizers treat all religions and confessions with equal respect.
