Our Opening Week draws crowds to the heart of Valletta with music and entertainment, street artists and performers spreading word of the Opening around the capital\u2019s streets, exhibitions set in diverse venues around the city, open days that re-discover Valletta\u2019s fascinating historical spaces, community storytelling events centred around the city\u2019s residents and the spaces they use, and much more.<\/p>\n
At the centre of our grand festa are the joy, dance, \u00a0music and reverie that fill Valletta\u2019s four main squares \u2013 St George\u2019s Square, St John\u2019s Square, Castille Square, and the area around the Triton Fountain \u2013 where the Catalan theatrical group, La Fura dels Baus, blurs the line between audience and performer with outdoor acrobatics, while \u017bfinMalta offer contemporary dance performances. Throughout our celebration, digital projections, video art and choral symphony lend the capital a wondrous and magical atmosphere. And all over on the city, travelling bands and performers take the festivities to the streets, inviting residents and visitors all over the Maltese \u00a0 Islands to take part in this spectacular celebration.<\/p>\n
