Bachata Open Air at Kalnciema Square
On a more light-hearted note, if you fancy social dancing on a Friday evening, this might be your chance. August 21, at Kalnciema Street Square, a free Bachata lesson for beginners takes place at 18:30, later followed by an open-air Bachata party.
Entry free of charge.
