Editorial snapshot
Riga rewards the traveller who books early for summer and late for winter. Fares from London or Berlin can be startlingly low in January, and the city's Art Nouveau streets look magnificent under snow. Summer brings festivals and long golden evenings but also the sharpest price spikes. It suits the curious city-breaker who wants Europe's history without the selfie-stick crowds — and who doesn't mind cold.
Score based on Laters booking data and editorial review, 2026
January and February offer the lowest fares and the fewest tourists — cold, yes, but the city is yours. June through August is peak season, driven by the Jāņi midsummer festival and long Baltic evenings. Book summer at least 10 weeks out; winter deals can appear within a fortnight of departure.
| Month | Price Band | Demand | Travel note |
|---|---|---|---|
| January | Budget | Low | Cheapest month; cold and quiet, great for budget city breaks. |
| February | Budget | Low | Still very affordable; some winter festivals brighten the calendar. |
| March | Budget | Low | Early spring, fares begin rising slightly as daylight returns. |
| April | Mid | Medium | Easter weekend pushes demand; book a few weeks ahead. |
| May | Mid | Medium | Mild weather and lower crowds; strong value before peak season. |
| June | Peak | High | Jāņi midsummer festival; fares and hotels fill fast. |
| July | Peak | High | Busiest month; beach day trips and outdoor events peak. |
| August | Peak | High | Latvian Song and Dance Festival years draw extra demand. |
| September | Mid | Medium | Crowd and fare drop-off; still warm enough for Old Town walks. |
| October | Mid | Medium | Autumn colour in the parks; shoulder-season value returns. |
| November | Budget | Low | Quiet and grey; fares dip sharply, good for budget travellers. |
| December | Mid | Medium | Christmas markets lift demand; book early for December trips. |
