Culture and Traditions
Gozo is also much known for carnival and during that weekend many Maltese people come all over from Malta to experience Gozo’s unique carnival especially in the village of Nadur. Many locals dress up in colourful and also outrageous costumes with the intention of not being recognised.
Feasts are also a very important tradition on the island with celebrations including fireworks and bands every weekend in the summer season.
A number of Maltese dishes or variants of these dishes are associated with Gozo. Gozo is particularly known for its local cheeselet.

Famous quotes containing the words culture and/or traditions:
“The treatment of African and African American culture in our education was no different from their treatment in Tarzan movies.”
—Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
“... the more we recruit from immigrants who bring no personal traditions with them, the more America is going to ignore the things of the spirit. No one whose consuming desire is either for food or for motor-cars is going to care about culture, or even know what it is.”
—Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)
