It’s that time of the year, with the ancient city of Birgu alit with candles - Birgufest is happening this weekend! All the streets and houses are lit up with candles, chandeliers hang in the streets, and music ruminates throughout the winding pathways. 

Most of the museums and historical buildings will be open this weekend, which includes the magnificent architectural gem of Fort St. Angelo as well as the Inquisitors Palace.

Locanda La Gelsomina will be celebrating this event with it’s own display of candles. An event that cannot be missed, come join the festivities this weekend starting from Friday the 12th of October and ending on Sunday the 14th.
