RE RIGA! is an international contemporary circus and street art festival that has taken place annually in August since 2013. Over ten years, the festival has brought more than 140 artists from 25 countries to Latvia, attracting over 80,000 visitors.

As “Re!” in Latvian is an informal exclamation meaning “Hey, look at that!” or “Look, look!”, the festival’s events are held in various beautiful locations across Riga, always aiming to showcase the best of the city. In 2014, RE RIGA! was included in the official program of Riga – the European Capital of Culture.

In 2025, RE RIGA! will take place from August 13 to 16 at Rīgas Cirks, as well as in Vērmane Garden Park.

Festival aims:

  • To activate cultural life in Riga by making the city a vibrant, creative, adventurous, and socially engaging environment.
  • To introduce contemporary circus to Latvia and strengthen its development in the Baltics.

The festival is organized by the non-profit organization “Pievilcīgas pilsētvides biedrība” (Society for Attractive Urban Environment) and Rīgas Cirks.
