About this event
A fourteen-hour immersion in Latvian traditional culture, running from late morning right through to the small hours. Folk music, dance and craft traditions carry the programme, and the very long day means you can arrive for the gentle daytime sessions with children or turn up late for the livelier end of it.
Why we picked it
The deepest dive into Latvian folk tradition in the summer calendar, and open to all from start to finish.
