Special Light Show Riga November 2008

On the eve of the 90th anniversary of Latvia’s independence, new light will be found in many of Rīga’s buildings and parks – five nights in a row, just as soon as it gets dark outside. Stroll the boulevards of the city, visit Old Rīga, cast your eyes across the Daugava River. more info

The festival will conclude at 9:00 PM on November 18 with a performance of light and fireworks that will be devoted to the national celebration and will be visible from both banks of the river.

The “Beaming Rīga” tradition will be born – the festival will be held each year at this same time. click for more information, maps and schedules
