Springtime in Gozo 2026 programme launched

A programme of events spread over more than five weeks will take place across Gozo this spring as part of Springtime in Gozo 2026, running from April 10 to June 14.

The initiative brings together a wide range of cultural, religious and community activities aimed at both residents and visitors, with events designed to highlight the island’s heritage, creativity and seasonal appeal.

Announcing the programme, Minister for Gozo and Planning Clint Camilleri said the initiative is intended to showcase the island’s attractions during one of its most popular periods, while reinforcing Gozo’s position as a year round destination rather than a seasonal one.

This year’s programme builds on previous editions and includes a mix of music, theatre and opera, alongside community events, fireworks displays and family oriented activities.

Key highlights include RockAstra, Leone Goes Jubilee, Sqaqien, Resurrexit, Lux Tenebrae, the Nadur Fireworks Festival, food and chocolate festivals, Qalb il-Frawli, Science in the Citadel, wine themed events such as Est Est Est and Bis-Saħħa, and the Gozo International Infiorata.

The programme forms part of ongoing efforts to promote cultural tourism and encourage visitors to explore villages, local cuisine and artistic talent across the island during the spring months.
