This August, Gozo will come alive with colour, creativity, and cultural expression, as Alka Ceramics Ltd, the Ministry for Gozo, the Gozo Cultural Directorate, and the Munxar Local Council present the Gozo Ceramics Festival 2025. This year’s edition offers a two-part celebration that places ceramic artistry firmly in the spotlight, showcasing both traditional techniques and innovative approaches.
The programme opens today Friday 1 August at 8:00pm with the launch of the Gozo Ceramics Exhibition at the Cittadella Cultural Centre in Victoria. This curated exhibition features works from over 30 artists, including several emerging young talents. Visitors will be able to explore the diverse expressions of ceramic art throughout the month of August, as the exhibition remains open to the public for the entire month.
Tomorrow Saturday, 2 August, attention shifts to Xlendi Bay for the 12th Annual Gozo Ceramics Festival. Taking place from 6:00pm to 11:00pm, this open-air event brings together more than 40 ceramic artists who will engage audiences through live demonstrations and interactive activities. Visitors of all ages will have the chance to get their hands dirty with hands-on clay experiences, while enjoying a vibrant atmosphere filled with music and performance.
The event will also feature a unique live act by an international ceramic artist who will demonstrate pottery throwing while cycling as well as a live brass band, traditional music, and dance performances.
