Bank Holiday is a bank holiday in Malta
Bank Holiday in Malta
Date: The Bank Holiday in Malta is observed annually on the first Monday of August.
History and Traditions:
The Bank Holiday, known locally as 'Il-Vitorja' (Victory Day), commemorates several significant historical events, including the end of the Great Siege of 1565, when the Ottoman Empire attempted to invade Malta, and the Italian armistice in WWII on September 8, 1943.
It also honors the Feast of Our Lady of Victories, which has religious connotations.
This day is one of a series of public holidays in Malta that blend both historical and cultural significance.
Activities:
Maltese people typically take this time to relax with family and friends.
Many attend local village feasts (festas) celebrating patron saints with processions, fireworks, music, and food.
Others take advantage of the warm weather by going to beaches or enjoying leisure activities like picnics or boat trips.
