Rezekne Municipality DaysRēzeknes novada dienu nedēļa

A week-long series of community events held each July across Rezekne municipality. The municipality organizes themed days (Fishermen’s Day, Family Day, Sports Day, Crafts Day, etc.) in different parishes, featuring local sports competitions, workshops, concerts, and exhibitions. For example, the week may begin with a Fishermen’s Sports Festival (angling contests, boat displays at Nagli) and include a Family Day concert in Berzgale, culminating in performances by folk ensembles at Anchupa kartodrome. Each day highlights local traditions and values, bringing rural communities together with free, inclusive activities 1 2.

These festivities are organized by the Rezekne municipal government to promote community cohesion and celebrate local lifestyles (fishing, crafts, agriculture). The program reflects Latgale’s rural heritage - families, folklore, craftwork and farm life are emphasized. Traditional craftsmen, school groups, and amateur ensembles participate alongside sports and cultural exhibits, underscoring the region’s folk traditions and communal spirit 1 2.
