The feast of St Julian is celebrated in the town of St Julian's, one of the most cosmopolitan towns in Malta. St Julian's is known for its nightlife, and the feast is celebrated with fireworks, processions, and the traditional meal of rabbit stew. The contrast between the ancient festa and the modern nightlife is part of the charm of Malta, where the traditional and the modern exist side by side. The feast of St Julian is also known for the "naha" (the rivalry between the two band clubs of the town), and the competition between the two clubs is so fierce that the fireworks displays are held on separate nights.
