The feast of Our Lady of Lilies (Madonna tal-Gilju) is celebrated on the third Sunday of June.

Late pre-historic Neolithic until Tarxien periods burials in a natural cave are found in the peripheries of Mqabba, in a site known as "Bur Meghez", in the whereabouts of Tan-Naxxari Quarry.

The main church is dedicated to Assumption of Our Lady and its feast is celebrated on 15 August.

The church houses a significant titular statue, depicting the Assumption of the blessed Mother of God, which was crafted by Alessandro Farrugia in 1836.

The group won the first edition of the Malta International Fireworks Festival in 2006 and brought the most important honour in the village's history [citation needed] when it won the Caput Lucis Fireworks World Championships in 2007, in Valmontone a province of Rome in Italy after competing with seven of the world's most successful firework companies.

The highlight is the main fireworks event held on the Saturday, the eve of the Feast.
