The Event

The idea was to present Latvia as a well- kept secret on the world map. The goal was to strengthen Latvia’s image and ensure that Asia, US include Latvia in the list of priority travel destinations.

The idea was to present Latvia as a special and mysterious place, which attracts travellers and those seeking inspiration.
The event consisted of interconnected episodes in which Latvian culture, creativity, nature, taste, traditions and even Latvian landscapes were revealed.

Premises – transformed into a forest. Tables – made of real grass. Clouds-edible. Stones-talking. Artistic performances integrated Latvian landscapes-morning mist, smell of grass after rain, and so on. Gastronomic delights-edible seashells, chestnuts and leaves.
