Balluta beach on the day of the festa. While people were grouped along the promenade, many having a burger, hot dog or something else to nibble while hearing the band which was playing and waiting for the procession to make its way back to the church, others preferred to relax down on the steps of the beach, on the beach or even in the water.
Village festas are supposed to be solemn celebrations of the feast of the patron saint for the church. For most layman it is more of a social event and a means to meet old friends who have gone to live elsewhere and return every year for the festa.
