Riga Contemporary is an international contemporary art fair organised by Kim? Contemporary Art Centre, taking place 2–5 July 2026 at Hanzas Perons.

In its second year, it brings together 40+ galleries from more than 15 countries and presents works by 100+ artists across Europe, Asia, and North America. From Tokyo to New York, Tbilisi to Bratislava, Riga Contemporary positions the city as a meeting point for contemporary art across the Baltic states, Eastern Europe, and the wider international context.

Organised in collaboration with Riga City Council and under the curatorial direction of Kim? Contemporary Art Centre and Jeffrey Rosen (MISAKO & ROSEN, Tokyo; NADA), it fosters dialogue between emerging and established galleries, prioritising collaboration, accessibility, and cultural exchange.

Free to attend with prior registration, art fair presents an extensive public programme alongside gallery presentations.
