L%C4%ABgo%2C+R%C4%ABga%21+2012
LETA
Līgo festivities - the shortest night of the year, celebrating nature and fertility. Bonefires, beer and cheese, crowns of flowers and songs are also part of Līgo. No need to travel to Latvia's countryside to meet the break of dawn, a major event will be held in the centre of Rīga - on the Daugava's right embankment.

The embankment will have everything that is necessary to celebrate Līgo - the tastiest of foods, the knowingest of folk songs, favourite artists and responsive people, ready to succumb to the magic of Līgo night.

There will be games, various Latvian rituals, dances, songs, cheese and beer. It will also be possible to find out where it is best to search for the fern blossom, savour frothy beer, cheese as yellow as the sun, and sweet-scented bacon buns. Various folk ensembles, pop musicians and bands - from rock music to schlager will also perform during the festivities.
