Get ready for one of Gozo’s most enchanting nights of the year, as Lejl Imkebbes returns to the historic Cittadella on Saturday 14th June from 7pm onwards for its 2025 edition – and this year promises to be more magical than ever!

This year's event will be part of the 'Malta vision 2050 - Gozo 2050: A Journey Through Time' initiative. This experience involves three interactive rooms which will explore the present Gozo while also looking at the foreseeable future of this island. 

On this special evening, the iconic hilltop fortress in Victoria will once again be transformed into a glowing spectacle, with more than 20,000 candles lighting up its winding streets, bastions, and hidden corners. The warm, flickering light creates an atmosphere like no other – romantic, serene, and definitely photo-worthy!

Adding to the night’s glow, this year’s edition brings even more magic, offering something new for both first-timers and returning visitors. Expect artistic artefacts & installations that bring the centuries-old walls to life, and striking new light structures that elevate the overall visual experience.

After you’re done admiring the lights, enjoy the revamped entertainment area perfectly tuned to the event’s tranquil ambience, as well as some live re-enactments, roaming performers, and artists hiding behind every corner. If you want to enjoy the historican side of the spot, there will also be free entrance to all the museums within the Cittadella for that one night only.

'Gozo 2050: A Journey Through Time''s main aim is to involve people in the future of Gozo. Citizens will be encouraged to voice their opinion on the way forward on how Gozo can further become an attractive place to live in, work in and visit in the coming years.
