Sette Giugno

Sunday, 7 Jun 2026 · Malta · Nationwide · Public holiday

Bridge day check

Falls on the weekend, so it costs most people no leave — and in many countries no day is given back.

What the day is for

7 June marks the 1919 bread riots, when British troops fired on protesting crowds in Valletta and killed four men — the event that pushed Malta towards self-government.

Do shops and banks close?

Public holiday; banks, offices and most shops close. Valletta's cafés open.

Getting around

Sunday services; a wreath-laying at the Sette Giugno monument in St George's Square.

When it falls each year

Floating holidays shift; fixed ones move only in which weekday they land on.
