Start your year with a boom! Malta’s New Year’s Day means fireworks over the Baħar Mediterranju (Mediterranean Sea) and street celebrations that go late into the night. Imagine sipping a drink, eating pastizzi (flaky pastry filled with ricotta or peas), and watching the sky light up over Valletta.
Here’s a bit of history for you: San Pawl (St. Paul) was shipwrecked in Malta back in AD 60, and the Maltese sure know how to celebrate this legendary event. The streets of Valletta burst into life with briju (festivities), including processions and band marches. Want to experience the magic? Grab some mqaret (deep-fried date pastries) and join the crowds—it’s a vibe!
Looking for a chill day with fewer tourists around? St. Joseph’s Feast is perfect for some rilassament (relaxation). While locals spend the day with family, you can hit up ix-xatt (the beach) or explore Malta’s hidden gems.
Jum il-Ħelsien (Freedom Day) is a big deal here in Malta! It marks the day Malta bid farewell to the British military in 1979. Expect parades and patriotic vibes, especially in Birgu. The Freedom Monument becomes the hotspot for speeches and celebrations. Watch this Freedom Day parade for some Maltese pride—get ready to wave the bandiera Maltija (Maltese flag)!
Easter in Malta is kbir ħafna (a big deal)! Good Friday is all about tradition, with solemn processions and beautiful statues paraded through towns. If you want to feel the spirit, head to Żebbuġ or Qormi for their famous processions.
Malta’s version of Jum il-Ħaddiem (Labour Day) is pretty laid-back. It’s the perfect time to hop on a ferry and spend the day in Gozo, Malta’s smaller sister island. Fancy a swim in a hidden cove or a boat ride around l-Gżejjer ta’ Għawdex (the islands of Gozo)? Here’s a guide to exploring Gozo—trust us, you won’t regret it.
A day to reflect on Malta’s history, Sette Giugno commemorates the 1919 riots. After a memorial service, why not make the most of the early summer vibes? Hit up a ristorant fuq il-baħar (waterfront restaurant) for lunch, then take a dip in the crystal-clear waters.
L-Imnarja is the feast of St Peter and St Paul, and it’s a foodie’s dream! Locals flock to Buskett Gardens for BBQs and picnics. If you’re feeling adventurous, check out the quirky donkey and horse races—it’s a sight to see!
Santa Marija is one of the biggest celebrations in Malta, and the party doesn’t stop until the fireworks fade. Major towns like Mosta, Gozo, and Ħal Għaxaq throw massive street parties, and the skies light up with nar (fireworks).
Boat races, anyone? Jum il-Vitorja (Victory Day) celebrates Malta’s historical wins, and the best part? The Regatta! Grab a spot by the Grand Harbour in Valletta or Birgu and watch the boats battle it out. This video gives you the inside scoop on the action.
Fireworks, concerts, parades—it’s fiesta time again! Jum l-Indipendenza (Independence Day) marks Malta’s 1964 break from British rule, and the party doesn’t stop until the streets clear. Head to Pjazza l-Indipendenza in Valletta for the best celebrations.
For a quieter, more spiritual day, il-Festa tal-Immakulata Kunċizzjoni (Immaculate Conception) is all about reflection. Visit some of Malta’s stunning knejjes (churches) to take in the beauty of this religious holiday.
Another big day in Malta! Jum ir-Repubblika celebrates Malta becoming a republic in 1974. Expect military parades, fireworks, and traditional music. Fancy hearing some Maltese folk tunes? Don’t miss Għanafest—it’s got għana (traditional folk singing) that’ll transport you back in time.
Il-Milied (Christmas) in Malta is all about the twinkling lights, presepji ħajjin (live nativity scenes), and cozy feasts. Wander through the villages and check out the beautifully lit-up streets.
