Dolcino Pink Party at The Pearl

A charity event in support of Action for Breast Cancer gets under way tomorrow night under the patronage of Malta’s fastest-selling rosé wine, Dolcino. The event is a tripartite initiative by Emmanuel Delicata, Pink magazine and The Black Pearl restaurant.

This Pink Party @ the Pearl has been organised in close collaboration with the Action for Breast Cancer Foundation, and all funds raised will go towards the group which has helped fund new equipment and prostheses for cancer patients for the last three years. All moneys collected from the event will go to help the foundation to fulfil its mandate to provide a €750 new biopsy gun, a new €13,500 specific X-ray machine at Mater Dei Hospital and €45 per patient as part of the new project to provide leisure prostheses for member patients.

The party, which is by invitation only, kicks off on Saturday night at 8 p.m. at The Black Pearl restaurant, which is permanently berthed at Ta’ Xbiex Marina, where guests will be met with chilled glasses of Dolcino before boarding. Once on board the party will get under way with free-flowing Dolcino, delicious finger foods and music.

During the evening, which goes on until late, a raffle will take place which offers some great prizes, including some fantastic paintings, complimentary meals at The Black Pearl, mixed cases of “pink” wine, a double magnum (three litres) of Gran Cavalier Syrah and invitations to the Delicata Wine Festival. The local artists who have kindly donated paintings to help raise funds for Action for Breast Cancer are Debbie Caruana Dingli, Christine X and Mike Le Makoo. Guests are being asked to arrive dressed with just “a hint of pink” in keeping with the theme of the evening.

Upstairs, the Black Pearl’s main restaurant will be open as usual for any pink party revellers who would like to round off the evening with a good meal and more wine.
