August 08 2024 07:27 by PCLMedia
Taking place at the Granaries in Floriana from 7 till 11 August, this five-day festival promises an unforgettable celebration of local and international cuisines, attracting thousands of locals and tourists alike.
Another edition of the Malta International Food Festival will offer the public over 1,000 different foods from 40 countries. This is the largest edition yet.
The Malta International Food Festival is a respected and well-known culinary event. It is the island's most anticipated gourmet event, featuring cuisine from all around the world.
Thousands of food and wine lovers attend Malta's biggest event of the year each year. Over 150,000 people have attended the festival in recent years. With over 48,000 visitors during the 2023 Malta edition, 2023 was the biggest edition yet.
The Malta 5-day festival goes beyond eating and drinking to reveal what the food scene in Malta is all about: embracing local and seasonal produce, promoting its diverse culture, championing premium producers, indulging in a kaleidoscope of tastes, and being treated to an amazing night out at The Granaries, Floriana.
During the event, visitors are entertained with live performances by some of Malta's top talents, as well as a variety of additional children's activities.
Visitors purchase tokens from cash points, which they can then redeem for any cuisine they want, including drinks and a choice of high-quality wines.
The festival opened on Wednesday and runs until Sunday at the Granaries in Floriana.
MTA Chairman Gavin Gulia said that such a festival not only celebrates the diversity of food, but brings everyone who works in this sector closer together, adding that it will also serve to show the diversity that Malta offers for everyone who wants to visit it.
“We are excited to support this event that brings together diverse cultures and culinary traditions,” said Gulia. “The Malta International Food Festival not only celebrates food but also fosters community spirit and cultural exchange. It is a shining example of the diverse types of events held in Malta during the summer, showcasing our vibrant cultural scene and enhancing the overall visitor experience.”
As part of a corporate social responsibility initiative, the organisers have teamed up with Missio Malta to deliver a live concert by popular local performers such as Kantera and Kurt Calleja over the last three days of the festival.
