Taste fest awaits! The Malta International Food Festival returns to Floriana this week
As from tomorrow marks the return of the annual International Food Festival that celebrates global cuisines. For five days, between 5th and 9th August, from 6pm onwards, the Granaries in Floriana will be filled with food stalls offering over 1000 different food items cooked by around 42 kitchens.
This year, the festival is celebrating its 10th edition with a bigger and more diverse programme, bringing together the finest flavours from around the world in a celebration of food, culture, and entertainment.
Over the past decade, the festival has continued to grow year after year, becoming one of Malta's largest gastronomic events. Each year, it welcomes thousands of Maltese, Gozitans, expatriates, and tourists who come together to enjoy its unique culinary experience.
Of course, Maltese food will be on the agenda, as this event will not only give prominence but will also see strong promotion for local produce.
The festival will bring together more than 100 exhibitors, including restaurants, producers, importers, and leading brands from the food and beverage industry. In doing so, it will continue to serve as an important platform for promoting local products and businesses.
Beyond the delicious food, this event is also a showcase of different cultures and experiences with daily entertainment from international tribute bands as well as a host of local artists. There will also be an extensive children’s area with safe and educational activities as well as themed competitions.
