Colourful Spring Festival at Mežaparks

Mežaparks is our neighbouring district, where we often go for leisurely walks. There is a pine forest with paths going up and down, and for the more demanding walker or rollerblader, paved paths too. There is also a favourite spot with a steeper bank offering a wide view across Ķīšezers lake. As warmer weather arrives, Mežaparks is full of leisure-seekers, attraction-goers and festivity celebrators. And so now, as Easter approaches, posters (see below) placed right here in Sarkandaugava announce the upcoming celebrations. On 5 April from 12:00 to 16:00, with proper swinging and games, there will be a joyful Easter celebration at Mežaparks, dedicated this year to Easter celebration traditions of the world's peoples - decorating a stylised Egg Tree as they do in Germany, a decorated hat parade as in America, a giant spring equinox omelette in the French style and much more. The event will also feature the resonant Latgalian songs of post-folklore group "Rikši".
