Silent Disco
Silent discos, or dance parties where each visitor gets their own set of headphones instead of the music blaring from loudspeakers, are becoming increasingly popular for the sake of the partygoers' ears and neighborhood residents. Tallinas Street Square (between Tallinas, Miera, Palīdzības, and Cēsu Streets) is holding the second silent party this year on June 2 starting 19:00. Several musicians and DJs will take care of the music in your headphones. More information is available on the event page.
Hippie and Punk Festival
The Lastādija creative space (Turgeņeva 13, 15, 17, Puškina 11) is hosting its annual Hippie and Punk festival on June 3 starting already at 5 in the morning, until 23:00 at night. Activities will take place all day, but performances by several musicians start at 18:00. More information on the Facebook page.
