For the first time in Liepāja - October, 4

okoncert and Rock & Organ – for the first time in Liepāja!

On October 4, 2025, the historic Liepāja Lutheran Church will host an extraordinary concert event: Rock & Organ for Liepāja.

This one-of-a-kind evening will present a fusion of powerful organ sound with the expressive energy of rock music, enhanced by a carefully designed lighting concept and the church’s unique acoustics.

Renowned rock classics will be performed in new, specially arranged versions for organ, guitars, percussion, and vocals. Audiences will experience legendary tracks by Pink Floyd, The Rolling Stones, The Animals, Queen, and Deep Purple, reinterpreted through the lens of this distinctive instrumentation.

The program will also highlight the rich heritage of Latvian rock. Works by Pērkons, Līvi, Liepājas Brāļi, excerpts from Zigmars Liepiņš’ acclaimed rock opera Lāčplēsis, and the audience-selected “Liepāja Song” will underscore the city’s well-deserved reputation as Latvia’s rock capital.

This concert offers a rare opportunity to experience the intersection of two musical worlds – rock and organ – in one of Liepāja’s most atmospheric venues.

The event is organized by Baringtons K2 Association in collaboration with Okoncert, Liepāja 2027 Foundation, and with financial support from the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Latvia, as part of the Rokam Roku program.

Liepājas Lutera Baznīca

Liepāja, Jelgavas ielā 62
The Liepāja Lutheran Church is a unique architectural monument of early 20th-century Latvia and a striking example of its style.
The monumental exterior of the church harmonizes remarkably well with its bright and airy interior. The origins of the Liepāja Lutheran congregation date back to 1880, when members of St. Anne’s parish living in Jaunliepāja began to envision a dedicated place of worship for the Latvian community.
On February 4, 2007, the church saw the consecration of its new organ pipes — a masterpiece by the Swedish firm Åkerman & Lund, originally built in 1968. The organ was delivered to Liepāja in October 2006, and its installation began at the end of that month, completed right on schedule.
The Liepāja Lutheran Church is the largest religious building constructed during Latvia’s first period of independence.
