Ten-day bus passes will be offered in Riga during the Song Festival, allowing for extended travel convenience.
The 13th Latvian School Youth Song and Dance Festival, a significant national event, is fast approaching, and Rīgas Satiksme (Riga’s public transport authority) has introduced a special e-ticket for certain participant groups.
## Purchasing Options
Eligibility for the special e-ticket is limited to registered youth groups, choirs, dance ensembles, and other official participants associated with the festival (via their organizations or group leaders). The general public may not be eligible for this specific ticket, and they should use standard Rīgas Satiksme tickets or passes for public transport in Riga.
Group leaders or organizers typically receive instructions from the festival organizers about eligibility and how to obtain these tickets for their members. Individual participants may need to confirm their eligibility with their group coordinator and may apply for the e-ticket through a digital platform or mobile app provided by Rīgas Satiksme.
## Registration Requirements
For group coordinators, official registration with the festival organizers is mandatory, and they may need to submit a list of participants for verification. They may receive unique access codes or links for ticket distribution.
Individual participants must confirm their eligibility with their group coordinator and provide some personal information (name, ID, festival role) for ticket assignment.
## Where and How to Use
The ticket is valid only on Rīgas Satiksme buses, trams, trolleybuses, and (sometimes) municipal trains in Riga. The ticket is activated for a specific festival period and is digital; no paper ticket is issued. Rīgas Satiksme staff may check tickets on-board, and festival ID or accreditation may also be required in combination with the e-ticket.
## For the General Public
If you’re not a registered participant, use standard Rīgas Satiksme tickets (available at kiosks, via app, or contactless bank card). Occasionally, special event passes for spectators may be sold, but these are separate from the participant e-ticket.
## Who to Contact for More Information
For participants who have not received information about the special ticket, contact your group coordinator or the festival organizers directly. For general public inquiries, contact Rīgas Satiksme customer service or visit their website.
## Conclusion
Special e-tickets for the festival are generally available only to registered participants via their group coordinators or official channels. Registration is mandatory and handled through festival organizers; individual purchase is not possible. Digital distribution via app or platform is typical. The general public must use regular transport tickets.
For the most precise, up-to-date information, check the official festival website, your group coordinator, or Rīgas Satiksme’s website and customer service as processes and requirements can change annually.
