Gunda Vaivode, a jury member of the public media award "Kilograms kultūras", is delighted with this week's cultural offerings. After the concert "Dzimuši Latvijā" in Dzintari on Friday evening, she briefly visited Riga and was taken aback by the city's activity.

%According to her, shortly before midnight the capital was full of people. In the "Kimmel" quarter area, where the concert by Laura Reiniks and "Labvēlīgais tips" had just ended, car movement was barely possible, all cafes up to Barona Street were buzzing, and people were queuing.

%This week, the cultural route also includes other locations – Tukums, Līgatne, Madona, and "Kalna Rasas". No specific description of events at these stops is provided, but Vaivode's words indicate a vibrant cultural life beyond the capital.
