“This project is not only a great opportunity for local professionals to partner and cooperate, but also a matter of honour for Liepāja’s IT community. It is a great pleasure that the members of the Liepāja Technology Cluster involved in the development of the website carried out this task with great passion and sense of responsibility.
I believe that the steady growth number of the cluster members is the key to a stronger Liepāja IT alliance and the opportunity to jointly implement new projects.
We are grateful for this opportunity and keep our fingers crossed for Liepāja,” said about the development of the new website www.liepaja2027.lv Agate Ambulte, the Head of the Digital Innovation Park and Liepāja Technology Cluster, the website will serve as a homepage of the Liepāja, South Kurzeme and Kuldīga region joint application for the European Capital of Culture 2027 title.
The new website was created in less than a month by local Liepāja residents – in cooperation with the Digital Innovation Park and the Liepāja Technology Cluster.
The technical part and design of www.liepaja2027.lv was implemented by the Liepāja Technology Cluster members – web designer Ennija Kudrēviča and web developer Verners Gavilovskis.

The Supervisory Board’s purpose is to oversee the project’s content, financial utilization, and achieved results, as well as to facilitate cooperation between municipalities, state institutions, and other stakeholders.
Launching the month of Liepāja’s 400th anniversary celebration, the Liepāja Holy Trinity Cathedral on Saturday, 1 March 2025, at 17:00 will host a sacred music concert, “Caur gaismu nāk un sudrabs top” (Through Light Cometh Silver Shine). This event brings under single musical umbrella newly composed works by Liepāja-spirited composers Ēriks Ešenvalds, Jānis Lūsēns, and Andris Kontauts, paired with samples from the cathedral’s historical sheet music collection, creating a harmonious bridge between past and present.
This competition was launched to inspire the creation of an innovative and artistically refined environmental object that integrates seamlessly into Liepaja’s urban landscape.
