If you’re unsure of your New Year’s Eve plans, we’ve got something that you and all the family can enjoy before you ring in the new year. The renowned Italian singer, Andrea Bocelli filmed a concert at various spots around the Maltese Islands last month ago and now, it’s finally being broadcasted!

The production, filmed in stunning places such as St John’s Co-Cathedral and Fort St Elmo, will feature eight songs – a significant number for Malta signifying through the notable Knights’ eight-pointed cross.

“The small island is a truly special place because it is found at the centre of the Mediterranean, it’s a little like the heart of the Mediterranean,” he told TVM. Four of the songs were filmed at St John’s Co-Cathedral while the other four at Fort St Elmo. During the production, other stunning places around the Maltese Islands will be featured.

“Today, Malta stands as an example of rebirth and after such a troubled history as it has experienced, today it teaches us that there is always hope, that we can overcome any situation, even the most difficult that the sun always rises,” Bocelli said, recalling Malta’s history.

You can watch the 50-minute show on TVM at 9pm or on Andrea’s YouTube channel.
