    • The Latvian Milk, Bread and Honey festival is an annual event that has been held in Jelgava at the end of August since 2001.


    Overview


    Originally held as the Milk Festival, replacing the once popular Wine Festival, it was transformed into the Milk, Bread and Honey Festival in 2004. It is dedicated to the promotion of handicrafts and food products.
    As part of the festivities, there is a product parade, presentations, creative workshops and sales from various artisans, farms, and companies where participants can taste Latvian milk, honey, and bread products.
    The holiday program includes competitions for baking, milking, making the most delicious bread dessert, eating and drinking milk, as well as creating the most beautiful straw sculpture and fishing championships. Several dance, musical, and theater art groups take part in the event.
    Since 2003, the Milk Pail Regatta has become an annual holiday tradition, in which rafts made of milk pails travel in Lielupe river towards Jelgava Castle.
