The annual festival of lights, Lejl Imkebbes, is back on 14th June at the historic city of Ċittadella, Gozo.

The alleys of the Ċittadella are usually lit up by several candles on the side of, or completely covering entire alleyways. The candles are assembled in patterns celebrating our rich heritage through lines printed on fabric and placed on the ground. Through the candle cases, the festival of lights becomes that much more colourful.
