Not with big mass events, but with exploratory walks and small concerts on Friday, August 14, begins Riga festival. Within three days, you can get to know the capital from the other side – see the places where the movies were made, walk around the labyrinth of flowers or suddenly get to the green ball in the yard itself. –
This year, the holiday is coming to Rigans, and they don’t even have to leave their homes, just open a window or go out on the balcony. Already on the very morning of Friday, there were dancing young people in folk costumes on the streets of Riga. They are members of the dance ensemble “Daiļrade”, which invited to participate in the traveling green ball of the 50th season of the Open-Air Museum Fair, which is one of the events of this year’s Riga Festival.
The green ball of the open-air museum fair will visit the center of Riga, Jugla, Āgenskalns and other places in the city on Friday. It is recognizable both by minibus and by jestra music and dancers.
“I read on the Internet today and came specifically, and I am very satisfied! There is a festive mood! It’s a holiday! ” says Monta, a resident of Riga.
