Go back RE RIGA! FESTIVAL 2023: ARRIVAL
03.05.2023.
This summer the contemporary circus and street art festival “RE RIGA!” is inviting you to the renovated Riga circus arena, where we will celebrate the theme of arrival – arriving back home, arriving at a new, unusual or even impossible space or returning to a place that feels familiar.
When: 15.08. – 20.08.
Where: Riga circus and Vermanes garden
For who: some shows will be for adults, some for kids and some for the whole family
Tickets: some shows will be for free, some with tickets only
This year we will see how objects rotate around their axes, how they change shapes and how they move around. We will see some clowns with light humor and other ones with darker humor. We will experience contemporary circus outside in the public space for free and we will go inside to see shows, where you will need to buy a ticket. You can enjoy the festival as you like, we will be happy to see you there.
Why Number 11.?
Because it is the 11th time “RE RIGA!” festival is happening.
