Why Malta is the Best Place for St. Patrick's Day ?
When March 17th rolls around, the sunny island of Malta transforms into a massive sea of green. Although it’s not an official public holiday, locals and expats alike are known to take the day off to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day in Malta. With a massive street party atmosphere, endless pints of Guinness, and local Farsons beer, this is one of the most anticipated events on the 2026 calendar!
The Main Hubs: Where to Go?
If you are wondering where the biggest crowds gather, look no further than St. Julian’s. The Spinola Bay and Paceville areas are completely closed off to traffic, making way for thousands of revelers, live DJs, and outdoor bars. If you prefer a more traditional daytime celebration, Floriana hosts a Sunday parade featuring pipe bands and family-friendly activities.
