Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel

Celebrate the festa with the people of Zurrieq

The Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel is celebrated annually in the town of Zurrieq in Malta. The days prior to the festa are dominated by an intensive programme of brass band marches, fireworks, processions and other religious functions. The locals make sure that the town is fully decorated in colourful lights, statues and other stuff that creates a vibrant atmosphere and a joyful mood. Spectacular firework displays are also happening every evening, so make sure not to miss out! Try some traditional delicious nougat, it's a great gift to take back home!

On the day of the feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, there is a procession around Zurrieq with the titular statue of the town followed by brass bands and a crowd of devotees. The finale is an aerial fireworks display that can last around 30 minutes. Festas are very important events in Malta, and although you can read alot about them, the only way to experience the magic of Maltese festas, is to head to Zurrieq for the festa of Our Lady of Mount Carmel this year.
