Calendar of events for December
December is one of the most beautiful, but also the busiest months of the year – Christmas, New Year's Eve,
celebration with friends and colleagues. It is important during this time not to forget to enjoy the joy of being together, who can help
make attendance at various events. LĪGAVĀM shares his tips on what you should definitely not do in December
to miss
A date at the cinema
The holiday season cannot be a reason to forget about regular dates with your loved one. Watching Christmas movies is
a great way to get in the holiday spirit and have a nice evening.
This year's most popular Christmas movie could be Once Upon a Christmas, which is showing in cinemas all over
in Latvia. The film tells the story of Kate, who is a little lost in her own life until she meets Tom - a guy who, after
in her opinion, is too bright and selfless to be real. The romantic story Once Upon a Christmas is special,
because it features the music of George Michael - from the famous Last Christmas to previously unheard Grammys
award-winning compositions.

On the other hand, we recommend Latvian cinema lovers to watch the romantic comedy New Year's Taxi 2 , where,
by the way, you will also see actress Ieva Florenci-Vīksna in one of the roles, who graced LĪGAVĀM book magazine
cover of number 6. The film invites you to discover the time of the New Year's celebrations, because the taxi driver Andrejs (Lauris Reiniks) will shoot again
passengers on the Volga, full of tradition and adventure.
