Grupa Olas Brings Infectious Energy to the Square outside Riga’s House of the Blackheads in Spring Equinox Celebration

Their infectious energy and lively interaction turned the cobblestone square into a pulsating dance floor, perfectly capturing the spirit of renewal and vitality that the equinox symbolizes.

The stunning backdrop of the 14th-century House of the Blackheads, with its intricate façade and rich history, provided a striking contrast to the contemporary beats echoing through the night.
