This year, Cyprus is welcomed as the guest country, with talented ceramic artists eager to share their knowledge and skills with local creators and festival-goers. Don’t miss the chance to see Thomas Benirschke, the German showman and ceramic artist, as he introduces his mind-bending four-handed throwing technique!

Prepare to be amazed by live demonstrations of various ceramic techniques. Visitors can ask questions, learn about the painstaking processes behind these artistic masterpieces, and get ready for an exhilarating display of a Japanese firing technique where pieces are pulled from the kiln red hot and finished right before their eyes!

Little ones won’t be left out of the fun! They can dive into hands-on activities designed just for them, guided by expert instructors eager to help unleash their inner artists. For those looking to take home a piece of the magic, unique ceramic creations will be available for purchase straight from the makers themselves.

As the sun sets, attendees can enjoy lively entertainment from the Gozitan Seguna Folk Group and the Brass Tubes band, adding a festive vibe to the evening. With decorations and torchlights lighting up the cliffs, the atmosphere will be nothing short of enchanting.

To make the experience even smoother, free park-and-ride facilities will be provided by cheerful tuk-tuks from both entrances to Xlendi, adding a playful twist to the festival adventure!

Don’t miss out on this artistic celebration—join the Gozo Ceramics Festival for a day filled with creativity, community, and clay!
