Latvijas Nacionālā opera un balets
Choose a ballet or a well-known opera and book weeks ahead. Dress up and have a glass of something at the interval.
What it is.
The Latvian National Opera and Ballet is the country's main opera house, in a neoclassical building facing the City Canal. It stages opera and ballet all season, and tickets are bought online. Some popular performances sell out.
