Sābrs is a yearly festival in Riga, Latvia, dedicated to zines and small press culture. It brings together artists, independent publishers, and the public to share and explore self-published works. Named after the old Latvian word for "neighbor," Sābrs cultivates connection, exchange, and collaboration.
This year, Sābrs returns with the theme ECOSYSTEM — a look into the small press publishing community as a living, interdependent system.The main event is a market held on July 5-6, 2025, in the Āgenskalns neighborhood, where visitors can browse and buy publications directly from their creators. Entrance is free. The festival also features workshops, exhibitions, and other events in nearby spaces.
