Carnival Youth in Jelgava
On November 3 one of Latvia's greatest music exports - the indie band Carnival Youth - started a Latvian tour. This is set to continue at Jelgava's Krekli on Friday at 10 p.m.
They've been endorsed at the European Border Breakers award at Eurosonic 2016 and their newest album, Propeller, was released April 1, 2016.
If you haven't heard about Carnival Youth lately, it's because they've been busy touring abroad.

Liepāja Symphony Orchestra at Great Amber Hall
What better reason to visit the Great Amber Hall - recently given an American Architecture Prize - than to listen to classical music?
On Friday at 7 p.m. the Liepāja Symphony Orchestra will perform pieces by Brahms and Sibelius, conducted by renowned Normunds Šnē.
Make a snowman or ski--if there's any snow
As winter seems to have come a whole month earlier (a steady snow cap usually appears in Latvia mid-December), there's a good chance ski slopes will be open over the weekend.
A popular place for cross-country skiing in Rīga is the Victory Park, and Sigulda is not too far away from the capital. Jūrmala has places to ski as well. And of course the top destination is usually Cēsis.
The Zagarkalns ski resort hopes it'll be able to start off the season this weekend--fingers crossed!
Ja laika prognozes piepildīties, iespējams, varēsim atvērt pirmo nogāzi jau Sestdien pēcpusdienā. Pagaidām gan tikai ceram un turam īkšķus.
