The Malta International Fireworks Festival will be taking place in three locations: Xagħra, Marsaxlokk and Valletta.

The event kicks off in Gozo tomorrow, followed by a performance in Marsaxlokk on April 27. The event in Marsaxlokk will be based on a traditional Maltese feast, where the colourful decorations and a local band dedicated to Madonna ta’ Pompei will take centre stage.

The grand finale is taking place at the Grand Harbour, Valletta on April 30.

Fireworks will be synchronised to live singing and a live musical orchestra, which will perform music written for the occasion from a floating stage.

This year’s festival will be different in more ways than one. The chosen theme for this edition, ‘Where Fire and Culture Meet’ reflects the way cultural aspects will be incorporated with pyrotechnical features.

The participating companies are Phoenix Fireworks Ltd (the UK), Rozzi Fireworks (the US), Martarello Srl (Italy), St Mary Fireworks Factory (Għaxaq) and Pyroemotions (Italy).
