Village Festa

Información

This is your chance to join the celebrations and experience the colourful goings-on of a traditional Maltese festa. During the summer months, there’s hardly a weekend when towns and villages in Malta and Gozo don’t put on a 3-day festa – a celebration of the islands’ patron saints. Each community’s church is lit up like a Christmas tree, and locals decorate their own rooftops and balconies with lights. You’ll see processions marching through the festooned streets, which are lined with stands and vendors selling souvenirs and traditional food, like Maltese nougat. Evenings are usually rounded off with a show-stopping fireworks display.
