The redolent smell of American, German, Italian, Spanish, oriental, Thai, Indian, Greek, Belgian, British, Lebanese and obviously Maltese food shall invade the Mdina ditch. Along the four-day festival chefs will be preparing more than 100 different dishes. A number of scrumptious surprises together with live cooking shows and spectacles will be the order of the day. Freshly prepared desserts to beat the summer heat will be also served.

Food for vegans, vegetarians, along with gluten-free products will also be available.  

The Mdina ditch will be carefully decorated to add to the wonderful atmosphere at this amazing site.

Patrons will be entertained with live performances offering the likes of Malta’s finest artists. A special area overlooking Mdina bastions will host activities by Heritage Malta, linking Maltese gastronomy with history.
