Verdi Gala Concert: Riga Opera Festival

About the Event

The Riga Opera Festival closes with a gala concert featuring favourites by Giuseppe Verdi conducted by Andris Poga.

The Riga Opera Festival, founded in 1998 as the first festival of its size and scale in Eastern Europe, has already become a valuable tradition. The festival is highly anticipated by both Latvian audiences and opera‐lovers from abroad who form the biggest part of all Riga Opera Festival’s visitors. Every summer, the festival marks the end of the Latvian National Opera’s performance season with an overview of the best moments of the previous year, offering fans a chance to relive their favourite scenes or see what they’ve missed.
