A natural and architectural pearl at the Baltic Sea, the Dzintari Concert Hall complex includes an elegant concert hall built in the 1930s, with excellent acoustics – the Small Hall, and the summer concert garden built in the 1960s – the Great Hall.

Concerts

Dzintari Concert Hall is a popular concert venue with not only prominent Latvian performers, but also world-famous artists who say that it is the special aura that brings them back again and again.

A concert season at the Dzintari Concert Hall would be unimaginable without performances by Maestro Raimonds Pauls, opera star Inese Galante, Latvian National Symphony Orchestra, and the world-famous conductor and violinist Gidon Kremer’s orchestra Kremerata Baltica.

A great variety of concerts are performed at the concert hall, from folk and classical music to rock and pop music.
