The story behind it
Rīgas Ritmi has become part of Riga’s summer tradition since independence, organized by the city. It uses iconic sites (e.g. Doma Cathedral Garden) to bring global jazz to Latvian audiences. It bridges Latvia’s music scene with international acts, and its recurring presence (especially in July) signals Rijga’s continuing role in regional jazz culture.
