Ja pavasarī izej cauri Siguldai, Jūrmalai vai Rīgas centram, tos sāc pamanīt — krāsainus A2 izmēra plakātus pie ziņojumu dēļiem, stikla tramvaja gaidītavām, muzeju ieejām. Koncertu datumus, pilssvētkus, vasaras sezonu atklāšanas, Jāņus. Pusi no tiem nekad neatradīsi TripAdvisor. Tāpēc mēs sākām tos fotografēt. Šis ir mūsu paša gatavots, regulāri papildināts saraksts ar to, ko esam ievērojuši — ar oriģinālajiem plakātiem zemāk (saraksts pieaug, tiklīdz parādās jauni plakāti).
Kā lietot šo lapu: piesities jebkuram plakātam, lai to atvērtu kā uzklikšķināmā gaismas kastē — daudzos ir QR kodi, kas ved tieši uz biļetēm. Sarakstu papildinām, kad pa ceļam ievērojam ko jaunu. Šodienas datums: 2026. gada 19. maijs.
