The L\u012bgo Flag<\/h2>\n\n\n\n The L\u012bgo<\/em> flag is the most important symbol of the Latvian Song and Dance Celebration. Since the very first festival, the L\u012bgo flag has been carried at the front of the Song Celebration\u2019s opening procession. The original flag is kept in a museum because it is very fragile and requires careful preservation, therefore, the flag in our exhibition is a delicately crafted replica. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n
