In the Maltese Islands it is commemorated with long standing traditions of religious celebrations. A solemn function is held in the hours of mid-afternoon marking Jesus’s death. With the participation of many, numerous communities hold processions which commemorate the Passion of Christ. In some parts of Malta, these processions may include some penitents dressed in white robes and hoods, walking barefoot and with chains tied to their ankles) as an act of penance or in fulfilment of a vow. This is a unique, medieval tradition which still survives today. For this year, due to the situation with COVID-19, all celebrations are cancelled. Nonetheless, it remains a public holiday.
