Riga Film Fund


The Riga City Council co-financing programme “Riga Film Fund” allocates co-financing through a tender. The programme is open to Latvian and foreign co-productions planning to shoot in Riga and Latvia. The Riga Film Fund tender is organized up to four times a year, once per quarter, and up to 20% of eligible film related expenditure can be obtained by the tender winner as cash rebate when filming is completed.

By launching this kind of co-financing programme, Riga is aiming to promote foreign film productions in Riga, to create new jobs, to attract investments to Riga, to encourage development of the national film industry and to promote Riga abroad.
