Feast of our lady of Mount Carmel- Balluta

The Balluta Bay feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, centred on the striking neo-gothic Carmelite church that dominates the bay's skyline. Like Malta's village festas, expect processions, brass bands, decorated streets and a warm community spirit spilling out across Sliema. It is free, family-friendly and a genuine slice of local tradition — good for visitors wanting to see Malta beyond the beaches. Much of the action runs across the day and into the evening.
