About this event
Latvia's leg of the Europe-wide Researchers' Night runs under the banner 'The Nature of Science!'. Labs, universities and research institutes across Riga open for one evening of demonstrations and conversation, built around the idea that science is stranger and more human than its reputation — you ask the questions, the researchers answer them.
Why we picked it
One night a year when Riga's research institutions are open to anyone who walks up, free, with the whole programme pitched at non-specialists.
