Experience a taste of the Mediterranean at the Malta International Wine Festival this June
June is an ideal month to visit Malta, as the weather is pleasantly warm without being overly hot. The Mediterranean Sea is perfect for swimming and water sports, while the island comes alive with cultural festivals, open-air concerts, and traditional village celebrations. Additionally, it’s less crowded than the peak months of July and August, allowing for more relaxed exploration of historical sites, beaches, and charming towns
For those seeking Mediterranean flavors and lifestyle, attending a wine festival is a fantastic experience. In June, Malta hosts the renowned Malta International Wine Festival, held from June 18 to 22 in the scenic Argotti Gardens in Floriana. This event promises five unforgettable nights of wine, culture, and celebration, featuring over 300 wines from local Maltese vineyards and internationally acclaimed labels from Italy, France, Spain, and South Africa. Visitors can discover artisan wines, organic selections, rare vintages, and exclusive releases.
Expert sommeliers will lead daily masterclasses on tasting techniques, food and wine pairings, and the influence of terroir. The festival also features live music—from local acoustic acts to jazz, funk, and indie bands—as well as DJ sets that keep the atmosphere vibrant into the late hours. Gourmet food stalls serve Mediterranean-inspired dishes, local Maltese delicacies, and wine pairings with artisanal cheeses, seafood, pasta, and desserts. The Malta International Wine Festival is the perfect combination of fine wine, delicious food, and lively entertainment—an essential event this summer
