Care for our folk

Promise Photography Festival is organized by Baltic’s leading photography specialists eager to spice things up in the region’s photography scene. We wish to nourish a space where ideas flow and aspirations come true. Some call it the photography industry, yet we feel that “community” does it more justice. The Promise Photography Festival serves as a room for this community to connect and engage eye to eye – while learning and celebrating together.

Riga – the sweet spot of the Baltics welcomes you

If you'd spin the globe and point to a random place, chances are you'd find your finger glued to the dot that says “Riga”. Our dear capital has the energy that attracts creative souls yearning for new thrills. It could be the amalgam of medieval quaintness, art nouveau extravaganza and the honesty of brutalism. It could also be our lush parks or sunsets spent ship spotting by the banks of Daugava. Maybe it's the taste of it – a cup of our specialty coffee or dinners that leaves one gasping for more. Who knows… But when you know, you know. Come see for yourself!
