Ričijs Rū | Ziemassvētku pasaka is a Christmas concert performance in Rīga, Liepāja and Valmiera from 19 to 27 December 2026, taking place at several venues. In the story, bear Ričijs Rū refuses to sleep through winter so he can experience the Christmas miracle together with bear cub Rūbija and discover why the holiday is so special. A prickly, angry hedgehog gets in their way, while the journey leads from decorating the Christmas tree and singing songs to making a new friend. The programme features both new and familiar Ričijs Rū songs. The venues are VEF Kultūras pils, LOC Liepājas Olimpiskais centrs and Valmieras Kultūras centrs.
