Workshops & classes in Malta

If you'd rather make something than watch it, Malta's workshop calendar has grown into one of the island's most rewarding corners. The Mediterranean Culinary Academy in Naxxar runs a constant programme of cooking classes, from handmade Maltese ravjul and traditional rabbit dishes to couples' date-night menus, brioche masterclasses and summer cooking clubs for kids. Diar il-Bniet brings farm-to-table classes to a historic Dingli farmhouse.

For the creative, sip-and-paint nights pair a glass of wine with a guided canvas at venues from rooftop bars to the historic Inquisitor's Palace, while Villa Bologna's pottery workshops let you paint your own piece in baroque gardens in Attard. Across the year you'll also find craft sessions, photography walks, dance and movement workshops, and skill-building classes for every level. These events are perfect for a different kind of evening out, a creative date, or a school-holiday activity for the children, and many make ideal small-group experiences for visitors wanting to take home more than photographs.

GoGather lists each workshop with its date, venue, price and a booking link, so you can reserve a place before it fills. Filter by area to find a class near you, or by date to match a workshop to a free afternoon. New classes are added regularly as Malta's academies, studios and makers open up fresh dates through the seasons, so whether you want to roll pasta, throw clay or paint with a glass in hand, check back often.
