For every Latvian, November 18 is important national holiday, commemorating the creation of the independent Latvian state in 1918.  We invite you to celebrate this day with locals and get the feeling of unity of our people, attending events in Riga!

 Riga will offer a great range of events, concerts and several fire and light installations in city’s parks.

Latvian National Museum of History also invite everyone to visit free of charge on November 17th (10:00-16:00) and 18th (11:00-18:00).

Fireworks in Ogre town.

As a matter of fact, if you would like to enjoy the festive firework show, we recommend visiting a charming town Ogre. Which is ~40min train ride from Riga.

Even so, we are sure that this day will be filled with many events to choose from. That will allow you to feel the unity and patriotism of the people of Latvia!
