Mqabba is a town in the south of Malta. Situated at the heart of a soft limestone area, the surrounding of this village is barren and stripped with quarries. Mqabba is renowned for the construction industry, and holds more than a quarter of the quarries in Malta. With around 3,700 residents, Mqabba still carries the characteristics of a typical Maltese village, with stillness prevailing in the small streets of the village. Mqabba was built around the Parish Church, being the predominant landmark of the village. The Parish Church is dedicated to the Assumption, with its feast being held every 15 August. Another feast is that of Our Lady of Lilies (Madonna tal-Gilju), celebrated in the third Sunday of June.
The parish feast which is organised between 8 and 15 August, brings to Mqabba a great number of Fireworks enthusiasts as the St. Mary Fireworks Factory is a world renowned Fireworks group who has brought honours on both national and the international stage. The group won the 1st edition of the Malta International Fireworks Festival in 2006 and brought the most important honour in the villages history when it won the Caput Lucis Fireworks World Championships in 2007 in Valmontone a province of Rome in Italy after competing with 7 of the world's most successful firework companies.

The secondary feast fireworks displays take place on the 3rd week of June of each year, the Feast in Honour of Our Lady of Lilies. Ground and Aerial Fireworks display are held on each day of the Feast. The main fireworks event is held on Saturday, eve of the Feast starting at 9:45 pm.
