The village feast is a central part of Maltese culture and life and is usually celebrated to the full. However, due to covid, celebrations have had to be cut back and the usually-week-long celebrations have been reduced to internal activities. Despite the regulations, you can still check out the towns which are sure to be decorated in their festa best. You can even attend a church service to celebrate the saint of the weekend.
