The Latvian National Opera and Ballet

The Latvian National Opera and Ballet is an internationally acclaimed cultural institution that seeks to foster and support the development of the creative process as well as cultural enrichment and educational activities. The Latvian National Opera and Ballet was built in a Neoclassical style in 1863, and is at its best when the auditorium is packed for evening performances. The location is older than the Latvian National Opera, which debuted Wagner's Flying Dutchman in 1919 after being established in the same manner in 1912 but having to wait until after the First World War. August Volz's studio, which also created the Roland Statue and the allegorical sculptures on the House of the Blackheads' front, created the opulent interiors.

The Latvian National Opera and Ballet aspires to perfection in all of its opera and ballet productions, as well as giving everyone in society access to top-notch art, encouraging creativity, and advancing public education. From October 15, 1918, the firm has worked under a variety of laws and regimes; yet, its ongoing existence throughout history has always been guaranteed by its brilliant artists and the productions they have created.
