What's On?

Victory day is celebrated on the 8th of September and is of great importance to the Maltese.

On this day the feast of the Nativity of the Virgin Mary is celebrated, as well as the end of the 1565 Great Siege, when the knights aided by the Maltese inflicted on the Turks a great defeat.

Every year there is a pontifical mass held at the cathedral and a military parade in Pjazza Indipendenza. A scholar delivers a speech to commemorate what is perhaps the greatest victory in Maltese history.
