Starting today, there will be a month of Easter in Gozo activities for 2026 – with the programme launched by Minister for Gozo and Planning Clint Camilleri.
The Easter programme will run between the 6th of March and and the 5th of April, which will include activities related to Lent, Good Friday and Easter in Gozo.
Gozo is always a special place to be at Easter, with events and religious activities taking place across the island, both inside and outside the churches, including concerts of sacred music, processions, pageants and exhibitions of statues, visual arts exhibitions, and many activities for children.
Easter is the greatest feast in the Christian calendar since it commemorates the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, a festival celebrating the Passion, Death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ.
The Minister said that in collaboration with the community, the Ministry for Gozo and Planning has drawn up a cultural calendar of activities, keeping alive many traditions that have been passed down from one generation to the next, offering a different experience to those who visit Gozo during this feast with over 90 activities taking place across the island.
Minister Camilleri said that Gozo is ready to welcome the many visitors expected over the Easter period, whether those seeking a spiritual experience, an appreciation of tradition, or simply a visit with a difference, and encouraged everyone to attend the organised activities.
