Traditions, Wine, Olive Oil and Honey Festival
On Saturday, 19 September 2026, Pjazza s-Salvatur in Għasri will host an evening celebrating wine, olive oil, honey, traditional food and Gozitan culture.
Starting at 7:00pm, the event will feature local and traditional cuisine, music, dancing and activities for children.
Admission is free.
Supporting Gozo’s producers
Events celebrating local food and agricultural traditions help consumers understand the work, knowledge and resources behind the products they enjoy.
They also provide an important platform for recognising Gozo’s growers, beekeepers, winemakers and food producers while strengthening the connection between the community and the island’s rural economy.
The Gozo Confederation for Agriculture and Fisheries encourages residents and visitors to attend these events and support genuine Gozitan products and producers.
