Inaugurated in 2024 by the legendary jazz musician Branford Marsalis, Pink Noise Riga will delight music lovers this summer from July 25th to 26th.

The festival, whose main idea is to help Riga stand out & shine bright in Europe’s music scene, will offer a cocktail of world-class jazz, pop-rock, fusion, and contemporary improvised music. Its performers include saxophonist and contemporary jazz giant Kamasi Washington, one of Latvia's most beloved pop music groups - Instrumenti (with their only concert in Riga this summer), modern fusion band LUPA, and the 2025 Great Music Award recipient’s Kārlis Auziņš Double Trio. The festival concerts will take place at the "Palladium concert hall", with the opening and post-concert parties at "M/Darbnīca".

This summer, we’re joining forces with Riga Wine & Champagne to bring you the “mini” Bubble Parade, a fusion of champagne and world-class jazz, at the Pink Noise “Bubble Lounge | powered by Dongfeng” on July 25 and 26.

At the Pink Noise Bubble Lounge in the Palladium concert hall, every Pink Noise concert-goer who purchases a Bubble Lounge ticket (in addition to their concert ticket) will be able to enjoy over thirty different champagnes accompanied by live music.

The champagnes - carefully selected to complement the festival performers’ music - will be curated by the festival’s founder, jazz connoisseur, and author of the book Wine and Nords, Aigars Nords, in collaboration with Latvia’s top sommeliers and Bubble Parade participants, including leading beverage importers in Latvia.
