    How the Maltese year works

    The backbone

    Village festas

    Every parish keeps its patron saint’s feast, and the dates move year to year. Somewhere on the islands is celebrating most weekends from May to September.

    This is the part of the calendar that no printed guide gets right, which is why ours is checked against parish sources each season.

    Fourteen public holidays

    Five mark points in Maltese history and nine are religious feasts. On each one the banks and most shops close and the buses run a Sunday timetable.

    Two of them, Good Friday and Christmas, close almost everything including many restaurants.
