How to celebrate NYE in Malta!

What better place to welcome the new year than with a trip to Malta? The Maltese take their celebrations to the next level so the fun is assured on this special day.

1. Party the night away 

Dance your way into the new year. Numerous parties are held all around Malta on New Year’s Eve at a number of dance clubs around the island. Join the fun and countdown to the new year in a lively atmosphere. Events are advertised all over Facebook so make sure to keep your eyes open and book your tickets in advance to avoid disappointment.

2. Go to a gala dinner

The Maltese love their food and they cook it well too! Dress up for the occasion and attend a gala dinner in the charming island. Make sure to have your glasses filled at the stroke of midnight - you don’t want to miss out on the celebrations.

3. Watch the fireworks

The Maltese are renowned for their firework displays. While the skill is expressed throughout the year, New Year’s Eve sees the best work of the pros.
