Alle Details lesen
The Feast of St Gregory on Sunday 6 September draws locals and visitors to Sliema's streets for one of Malta's enduring parish celebrations. The day opens with a solemn procession of the saint's statue through the town, accompanied by the brass bands that are a fixture of any Maltese festa. Street decorations, food stalls serving traditional Maltese fare, and fireworks over the seafront as evening falls round out the day.
Sliema's modern, built-up character sits alongside this older tradition during the celebration, with temporary stages and live brass band music filling squares and streets. The feast culminates in aerial and ground fireworks. Entry to the public spaces is free; specific ticketed events may operate at some venues.
