Last Friday on 4 November (yes, the day when the snow fell and traffic was hell in Riga :) ) RISEBA University in collaboration with BritCham held the Guy Fawkes Night 2016.
RISEBA University had done a great job and prepared a very charming evening for all. Both the younger attendees and the adults had plenty of things to keep them entertained. As last year the culmination was a riveting play intertwining the past and the present - the Gunpowder Plot and Brexit - followed by the fireworks and the big bonfire - we burned the Guy Fawkes along with all his top hat of snow.
Fingers crossed that next year we will have the opportunity to meet again to celebrate this fun British tradition though hopefully without the nature forces giving us (by now traditional) trouble.
We would like to say big thank you to all the supporters: Albert Hotel, CBRE, Fantasy Park, Indian Raja, Jaguar, Putnu dārzs, RISEBA Alumni Club, SemaraH Hotels, Singh’s and Spot Cafe!
