The World RX of Finland is a Rallycross event held in Finland for the FIA World Rallycross Championship. The event made its debut in the 2014 season, at the Tykkimäki amusement park in the town of Kouvola.

In June 2020, an extraordinary World Motor Sport Council added an event in Kouvola (Finland) to replace the World RX of France as it was cancelled, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.{{cite news|url=https://www.motorsport.com/world-rx/news/french-round-loheac-cancelled-coronavirus/4794855/|title=French World Rallycross round cancelled for 2020|date=21 May 2020|publisher=motorsport.com|first=Hal|last=Ridge|accessdate=21 May 2020}} The event was a double-header.{{Cite web|url=https://www.autosport.com/world-rallycross/news/world-rallycross-confirms-trio-of-2020-double-headers-4981725/4981725/|title = World Rallycross confirms trio of 2020 double-headers}}
