Marsovin is holding the eighth edition of its wine festival at Hastings Gardens in Valletta from Friday to Sunday.

Over 30 certified DOK and IGT quality wines from grapes grown around Malta and Gozo will be availabl. Patrons can purchase a €15 token package fee, which includes a premium festival wine glass to take home and €15 worth of wine tokens, with which one can either taste up to 20 different wines or drink a selection of wines by the glass or by the bottle.

But the festival is not only about wine. Leading local bands will be performing on the three nights. These include: Red Electrick, who will be giving an unplugged acoustic set; Airport Impressions, one of the most successful local bands in recent years; The Creepers, a cutting-edge vintage blues band; and Każinska, a talented seven-piece ensemble giving their own cool interpretation of band marches.

Marsovin has engaged various restaurants and caterers, who will offer a small but enticing selection of dishes at reasonable prices. Renowned Asian fusion restaurant Temptasian will be manning a sushi bar; Xara Palazzo Bottegin will offer its famous 12-hour smoked pork; Eat Me I’m Famous will be serving freshly made pizza on site; Zammeats will present premium cold cuts and cheese; Chukkas Grill will be chargrilling a variety of meats; and Il Carciofo will be preparing an array of traditional fresh pasta and Maltese dishes.

Non-wine drinkers may still visit the gardens and enjoy the live entertainment and food. A variety of non-alcoholic refreshments will also be available for sale.
