The Kercem Local Council website shows several photographs of the Summer 2005 celebrations ("Festa"): http://www.kercem.gozo.com/festa_gallery2005.php, several of which show unidentified flags. For instance, this picture showing the European, Maltese and a third flag which ought to be the Ta' Kerċem flag, a banner of the Ta' Kerċem arms, but instead is a white sheet with the Ta' Kerċem arms centred: http://www.kercem.gozo.com/festa2005/003.php and http://www.kercem.gozo.com/festa2005/006.php. This picture shows the above flags together with a yellow one bearing a more elaborate achievement of the Ta' Kerċem arms: http://www.kercem.gozo.com/festa2005/012.php

Several images show many examples of blue-yellow flags, perhaps the colours of a local football team, in several combinations:
- blue-yellow-blue-yellow horizontally-striped flag: http://www.kercem.gozo.com/festa2005/016.php
- blue-yellow-blue-yellow horizontally-striped flag, the hoist half counterchanged: http://www.kercem.gozo.com/festa2005/018.php
