Nadur: Prelude to Carnival – Region of Culture Gozo 2025
February 1 @ 19:00 - 21:00
Free
Event in Nadur:
Nadur, with its deep-rooted Carnival traditions, revives the rich spirit of the past through a showcase of folk music and għana. This event recreates the dynamic atmosphere of traditional celebrations, where storytelling and song once brought the community together. As these cherished traditions face a gradual decline, this initiative seeks to honour and preserve their legacy.
Region of Culture Gozo 2025: Programme Launch
Instead of one central celebration, the Artistic Director and team have worked with every Local Council to develop initiatives taking place across various localities, forming a collective celebration over a weekend that brings different spaces and communities to life. This approach serves as both an invitation to the public and a reflection of the programme’s ethos. Each event highlights a meaningful aspect of its locality, showcasing distinctive places, traditions and art forms. By focusing on small-scale yet impactful interventions, the launch reinforces the commitment to innovation, collaboration and community engagement.
Building on existing connections between cultural stakeholders while establishing new partnerships to broaden Gozo’s cultural network, the programme will also strengthen and elevate current cultural initiatives to align with the region’s evolving artistic and strategic objectives.
Full program of the weekend is available on the Gozo Region Website.
