Fireworks Festival 2025

Each spring, Malta’s skies brighten with dazzling displays whilst the Malta International Fireworks Festival takes over. This yearly tradition is an honouring celebration of mixing art and culture in the form of Maltese firework craftsmanship.

For generations the traditional craft of making fireworks has been proudly passed on from one generation to another, and is therefore entrenched in Maltese culture. This tradition dates back to the military division of The Knights of St John in the 16th century.

Fireworks have been an integral part of Maltese culture for centuries now. They were originally used for religious feasts and Maltese events. Now it became an annual event which unites fireworks enthusiasts from various countries and spectators to enjoy

The 2025 festival promises to be an unforgettable spectacle, spread over several nights:

• April 22 – Opening Night at Grand Harbour, Valletta
• April 25 – Second Night at Grand Harbour, Valletta
• April 26 – Special Showcase in Nadur, Gozo
• April 30 – Grand Finale at Grand Harbour, Valletta

Malta’s historic harbours and cityscapes will be the host of these incredible displays and will create a surreal visual experience
