Hundreds of people enjoyed the Qormi bread festival yesterday. The activity was formally opened on Friday evening by President George Abela. Its purpose was to highlight Qormi's credentials as the 'bread capital' of Malta and to encourage more young people to become bakers, the organisers said.

The activity included exhibitions and entertainment. Visitors could tour various bakeries which were open for the purpose and sample bread and other traditional food.
