This Sunday 11 October, the hamlet of Santa Luċija lights up for its now traditional Fjakkolata 🔥
From 6pm, torches are lit across the fields around the hamlet, and the paths and wayside niches glow against the evening sky. Santa Luċija is a small rural hamlet near Kerċem, and on an evening like this the whole area takes on a very different character from the one you see during the day.
The evening continues with folk music, traditional dance and local food, and it is a good opportunity to experience a quieter side of Gozitan village life, away from the busier coastal resorts.
Save this if you will be on the island this weekend.
