Royal Enfield Motoverse 2023 comes to a thrilling end in Goa

With the community at the center of all the action at Motoverse, the highlight was the official launch of Royal Enfield’s adventure tourer - the all-new Himalayan and the surprise unveiling of the custom-inspired Shotgun 650 Motoverse edition exclusively for the attendees. With an epic lineup of events across the board, there was something for everyone from beer-drinking battles and a curated Hunter hood to motorcycling action at the slide school, trail school and ace the hill.

Bringing the Himalayas to the beaches of Goa, the Basecamp at Motoverse gave a glimpse of the Himalayan culture through culinary insights, local brews, music and talks by inspirational figures from the region - ‘A Plate from Kharu’, cocktails inspired by the Himalayas at ‘Zing Zing bar’ and artists from Arunachal, like Taba Chake and Da Shugs an indigenous band from Ladakh left the audience wanting more with their fusion of traditional folk and rock music.

For the first time ever, Motoverse hosted a designated space for custom-built motorcycles called Shed Builds. Celebrating the imagination and creativity of the community, this space presented an opportunity for custom builders to showcase their motorcycles at the Royal Enfield’s largest gathering. The showcase featured the very best of the custom-built world, and 23 of the most exceptional builds were selected through a crowd sourced digital campaign.

The pure sport arena at MotoThrill delivered on the thrilling action it promises every year, and served as an adventure festival in itself, featuring the flagship dirt track, a curated class for the all-new Himalayan, an obstacle course and more. Another first was the Hunter Hood, an  experiential ride through a curated course designed to highlight the agility of the Hunter 350. Riders across every level of expertise also got the opportunity to acquire and test their new skills at the Slide School, Trail School and Ace The Hill.

The Motosonic stage kept the community grooving with a lineup of artists from across regions spotlighting celebrated artists such as acclaimed multi-lingual singer Benny Dayal, indie-pop duo Ranj & Clifr, up-and-coming artists Oaff x Savera and experimental Indian electronic artists, Tech Panda x Kenzani. Other fan favorites included Parikrama, Seedhe Maut, Midival Punditz Ft. Karsh Kale and Kutle Khan.

Designed to appreciate new and emerging artists, another first at Motoverse was the Culture stage that featured talents from all across the world such as the South American band ‘All yellow’ and local artist ‘Gala Soler’. Home to stories of grit, adventure and great feats, MotoReel featured talks by adrenaline chasers like base-jumper extraordinaire, Sajid Chougle, Mountaineers Rizza Alee, and Vijay Menon, explorers Jacqui Furneaux and Abhijit Rao and motorcycling inspirations Ashish Raorane and CS Santosh.

Over at the MotoShop, Royal Enfield launched a range of helmets designed specifically for children and Eternity Sunglasses, a range of eyewear that marries superior craftsmanship with the distinctive design sensibilities, Royal Enfield is known for. Embodying the essence of every motorcycle created by the brand, these designs are a perfect mix of vintage and futuristic.

With three unforgettable action-packed days, and a host of dynamic experiences, Motoverse 2023 concluded with incredible love from the motorcycling community and Royal Enfield enthusiasts.
