In Malta, a festa is a lively local celebration, filled with band marches, ornate street decorations, and dazzling fireworks. Each village has its own unique festa, and in Sannat, the village comes alive in July for the feast of St Margaret. The highlight is the grand procession, featuring a beautifully decorated statue paraded through the streets. If you’re planning to attend, it’s wise to arrive early; parking can be a challenge and the crowds swell as the day progresses. So settle in, soak up the atmosphere, and enjoy the vibrant spirit of this community celebration.
