About summer in Malta

Festa season

From June to September almost every weekend has a village festa somewhere: band marches, decorated streets, church illuminations and fireworks, ending with the procession of the patron saint. See the festa calendar for dates by village.

Open-air everything

Evenings are when Malta comes out: open-air concerts in squares and gardens, outdoor cinema, food and drink festivals, and parties on beaches and boats. Days are for the sea: early mornings and late afternoons are the best beach hours in July and August.

Good to know

  • Beaches fill by 10am on summer weekends; go early or late.
  • Festas are free; the fireworks are usually on Saturday night and the procession on Sunday.
  • Carry water: July and August regularly pass 32°C.
