On August 15th at 8:00 PM at the Ogre Open-Air Stage, marking 40 years since the legendary Ogre concert, the band “Pērkons” invites rock 'n' roll enthusiasts of all generations to the rock festival “Lightning to the Bottom”.

Especially for this festival, the “Pērkons” members plan to revive the historic program “Let It Be!” from the legendary concert, featuring songs by the band's leader, composer Juris Kulakovs, which have already become rock music classics, as well as works by “Pērkons” bassist Juris Sējāns, soloist Ieva Akuratere, and composer Imants Kalniņš.

The festival will feature performances by Latvian folk metal giants “Skyforger” and the group “Dagamba”, known as the hooligans of classical music. Unexpected musical performances are anticipated, featuring musician Reinis Sējāns, violinist Justīne Kulakova-Sipņevska, and other guest artists, combining the power of rock and academic music in the true spirit of Juris Kulakovs. Spectators can also experience various “thunderous” antics, cultural activities, creative workshops, family activities, and competitions.
