The Feast
Fgura
Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel
Held each July (officially on the 13th), the Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel in Fgura blends devotion and festivity in a distinctively urban, post-war setting. The celebrations span several days and include processions, band marches and elaborate fireworks, but also places emphasis on youth-oriented events and community inclusiveness. As a newer parish forming in the latter half of the 20th century, Fgura’s festival captures both contemporary Maltese festa energy and the deeper Marian devotion embodied in the Carmelite tradition.
