The opening night on the 19th December, will be inaugurated by the charismatic GianLuca Bezzina. Starting at 6pm he will be touring the forest and experiencing its magic together with children who attend various programs at Inspire as well as other children currently in care homes in Malta.
For this event Inspire's Animal Park in Marsascala will transform itself into a magical area where children can meet Father Christmas, participate in a number of activities such as feeding the Park's animals, enjoy pony rides, train rides, meet with Sant'as Dance shows by VAmpyrazz Showgirls and Alison White, as well as live concerts by Kurt Calleja, Eleanor Cassar and others.
Whilst children enter for free, all proceeds go towards Inspire’s continued efforts to provide top quality educational, therapeutic and leisure services to children and adults with physical and intellectual disabilities.

Inspire is a non-profit organisation that provides therapeutic, education and leisure services to children and adults with disabilities.
Through close relations with parents, Government and the business community, it aims to reach out and help those who are excluded, giving them choice and opportunity and advocating for their human rights and equal access to independence, education, employment, leisure and an inclusive community.
Inspire requires €3 million per year to operate. Its services are either completely free or heavily subsidized, making it heavily dependent on donations, voluntary help, volunteering and social enterprise to continue to provide support to those in need to be able to make a difference in their lives.
Inspire is also the official charity for the Malta Marathon, Half Marathon and Walkathon and invites runners and walkers who have not yet registered to do so through Inspire.
