The event was hosted in the presence of the UAE ambassador, who delivered an inspiring speech celebrating the strong and growing ties between the UAE and Latvia.
The newly refurbished halls of Riga Castle provided a stunning backdrop for the evening, perfectly blending tradition and elegance. We were treated to a memorable cultural experience, starting with a lively Latvian folk dance performance, showcasing the richness of local heritage. Adding to the celebration was a fashion show by talented Latvian designers, who presented collections inspired by Arab culture, beautifully merging elements from both regions.
Our team was proudly represented by Vlad Koriagin, CEO of Baltic Travel Group, and Paula Poriņa, our Project Manager for the Arab-speaking region. This event was not only a celebration of the UAE’s Union Day but also an opportunity to strengthen the bond between our two nations. With AirBaltic’s direct flights between Riga and Dubai, fostering tourism and collaboration is now more accessible than ever.
As a company committed to connecting people and cultures, we are excited about the prospect of welcoming more visitors from the UAE to the Baltics. Events like these inspire us to continue building bridges between diverse cultures and showcasing the unique charm of our region.
Happy 53rd Union Day, UAE!
We look forward to many more years of friendship and partnership between our countries.
