Swieqi is a town in Malta. The name Swieqi alludes to the watering channels that used to criss-cross what used to be farm land. It is situated 15 minutes by bus from Sliema. Its quiet environment and central location, combined with its beautiful townhouses have made it popular with the upper-middle/high class population of the island. In fact, vacant property in this area is notorious for its scarcity and despite its high appreciation, most owners are unwilling to sell.

Swieqi is sometimes assimilated with Ibragg, Madliena and part of St. Andrews. Although Swieqi has its own local council, it borrows its postcode from a larger district called St. Julian's.
