thumb|Gauja river in Ādaži thumb|Bridge over the River Gauja in Ādaži Ādaži () (formerly ) is a town in Pierīga, on the left bank of the Gauja river. The town is the administrative center of Ādaži Municipality, in the Vidzeme region of Latvia, as well as the extraterritorial seat of its Ādaži Parish. It is located by the highway A1, 21.6 km from the center of Riga. Latvia's longest river, the Gauja, flows along the Ādaži River, and its tributary Vējupe divides the town into two parts.
The town is sometimes popularly known due to the nearby Latfood factory producing Ādažu Čipsi, the best known potato chip brand in Latvia. Ādaži also has an eponymous wakeboarding club on the Gauja.
