Latvia commemorates their Independence Day on May 4th.
Latvia Celebrates 35 Years of Independence Restoration with Eventbrite Tickets and Declaration of Independence Exhibit
Latvia is commemorating the 35th Anniversary of its Independence Restoration on May 4, 2025, with a series of events in the capital city, Riga, and other towns and cities across the country. The celebrations are being held with the best wishes to all who love and support Latvia and gratitude to friends and allies for their support and solidarity.
Eventbrite tickets are available for the main events, which include speeches, parades, and a new tradition of gathering around a 'white tablecloth' to share memories and hopes. Riga has a wide variety of celebratory events planned under the slogan of 'Democracy week'. The military parade for the Independence Restoration will be held in Talsi.
Public transport in Riga is free all day on May 4, making it easier for everyone to participate in the festivities. The celebrations are not limited to Riga, extending to other towns and cities across Latvia. Our news service will provide live coverage of events in Talsi and Riga throughout the day.
For those interested in learning more about the events surrounding Latvia's independence restoration, a short LTV documentary titled 'The Keys to Latvian History, episode 16: The Declaration of Independence' is available. This documentary series was produced by the Latvian Television (Latvijas Televīzija, LTV) and serves as an excellent resource for understanding the historical context of the celebrations.
Some participants in the celebrations wear folk dress, adding a traditional touch to the events. The celebrations continue to reflect on the privileges of nationhood and the importance of Latvia's memberships in the European Union and NATO.
The ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict may have influenced the recent celebrations in Latvia, as many people are reflecting on the importance of their nation's independence and the privileges of membership in international organizations such as the EU and NATO.
As the day progresses, Latvia will come together to celebrate its independence and look towards the future with hope and optimism. The celebrations are a testament to the resilience and determination of the Latvian people and a reminder of the importance of preserving and cherishing the independence that was so hard-won.
