Recently, the two Victoria band clubs have been organising events in Republic Street, the main thoroughfare of Gozo, even during the tourist season. The result is a chaotic traffic situation spread over two solid days.
A stone’s throw away, Independence Square, known as It-Tokk, and the newly-refurbished Villa Rundle are both ideal venues for such events.
Is the Victoria local council happy with this situation? Definitely, the people are not. Complaints of the public are not being heeded, seemingly falling on deaf ears.
