The last quarter of the year while approaching winter holidays, hosts one more worth to mention event, which annually takes place in Riga. It is called Staro Rīga and it is dedicated to the art of light, literally translated as Lights Riga. This year, at already the 11th festival it will be possible to observe 43 light objects around Riga.

Staro Rīga is known outside Latvia among tourists and artists. This time artists from France, Germany, Portugal, Japan, and Netherlands were invited for collaboration.

This year the festival will happen on the 16th, 17th, 18th, and 19th of November and its dates will coincide with the public holiday on the 18th of November, Latvian independence day.
