About this event
Riga's anniversary programme moves out of the centre to Pļavnieki for a ten-hour neighbourhood day built around sport and activity, running from midday until late. It is aimed squarely at residents rather than visitors, which is exactly what makes it worth the tram ride if you want to see how the city actually celebrates.
Why we picked it
A local, sport-led district festival away from the tourist centre, open all day at no charge.
