Gozo Japan Friendship Event

Welcome to 1st edition Gozo Japan Friendship event.

Every autumn, thousands of lanterns light up Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine, South part of Japan, Jinko-shiki Festival. The illumination from the lantern represents ‘the light of the ancient capital’. This year lanterns will illuminate the Gozo Cittadella.

During this Gozo-Japan Friendship event, we are going to have several culture activities, workshops, typical and traditional food to taste, as well as Japanese sake and whisky to try.

Join us in this unique experience of Japanese culture at the Cittadella this autumn.
