Jelgava Old Town Street festival

Overview

The annual Old Town Street festival in Jelgava is scheduled for 15 August. Organisers close Vecpilsētas iela to traffic and run a day‑long programme that includes a crafts market, food stalls, live choirs, historical reenactments, exhibitions, children’s theatre, inflatable rides, pony rides, workshops, guided tours and a free green‑ball in the evening.

A week later, the Jelgava Regional Tourism Center announced an additional night‑time “Lantern Hike” on 29 August in the Pilssala meadow near the Lielupe River. The three‑hour walk, led by a local guide, will highlight wild horses, rare plants and birds, with a €3 fee (free for preschool children) and required registration.
