Give the gift of rock ‘n’ roll!
Tickets for Leningrad Cowboys & Major Healey
On June 13, 2026, we will be celebrating our Jokerfest – during the day as a free open house event with test rides, a ride-in bike show, and a scene meet-up. In the evening, the festivities will continue with a spectacular party!
Concert tickets are now available – ideal as gifts and perfect for anyone who wants to give their loved ones something to look forward to this summer.
We are bringing back a legendary band combination that already provided an absolutely amazing party in 2012: Leningrad Cowboys and Major Healey!
The Leningrad Cowboys, the Finnish cult rock band with their distinctive quiffs and oversized boots, who have already played on stages around the world and thrilled countless fans with their unique mix of rock, humor, and spectacle, are back in action after a few years and on their way back to the stages of Europe. These reunion shows are special because the band is playing live again in 2025/2026 after a long break from performing – and Jokerfest will be a highlight of this comeback!
In addition, “Major Healey, an integral part of our event history for many years, thrills audiences every time. With their powerful rock show and unmistakable sound, they are guaranteed to create the best atmosphere.”
The Ultimate Summer Party
Our ultimate Summer Party kicks off at 10:00am with the opening of the showroom. There you will find the latest custom bikes, fashion, accessories and of course our team. If you are interested in the production of our parts you can comfortably stroll with your colleagues from 10:00 to 17:00 through our production halls and workshops. Here, too, the faces of Thunderbike are waiting for you, don’t be afraid to ask questions!
Outside, everything revolves around the topic of custom bikes. From small 1 cylinders to the classic V-twin, we present you live the most beautiful bikes from the ride-in bike show. By the way, you can register online for the Bikeshow via our contact form.
