The annual spring festival, Colour Fest, returns to Valletta Waterfront from 13th to 15th April.

Get ready for a brightly-hued weekend of music, games and entertainment at Valletta Waterfront from 13th to 15th April. Colour Fest is back!

This year’s fourth consecutive edition takes inspiration from the iconic coloured doors of Valletta Waterfront, which together with the historic Grand Harbour serve as a backdrop for live music, outdoor games, stalls, crafts, street entertainment and children’s animation.

Starting with activities for kids on Friday night at 6:30pm, the festival will also include stilt-walkers, a roaming close-up magic show and a live band to close out the evening. Saturday evening and Sunday afternoon are also jam-packed with fun for both young and adults alike, with a cocktail-making show and street performers who will make sure there’s never a dull moment.

A children’s art competition, going by the theme The Colourful Aspects of Maltese Culture and Traditions, ran during the months of February and March, and the awards ceremony for the best works will take place on Saturday evening at 7pm.

And if you need any more reason to celebrate colour, all activities during the weekend are free of charge. For more information and the full programme, click here
