Everyone on the island has heard of Pawlu Curmi, Malta’s very own King of Carnival who shows up to put a smile on everyone’s face. Earlier today, Pawlu was featured in a Valletta guide’s video banging away on a bright yellow bucket outside his home.

“Whilst guiding in the lower part of Valletta, I stopped to salute the King of Carnival, Pawlu Curmi, il-Pampalun. This is his tribute to one of our lovely Brazilian students,” wrote Stanley Cassar Darien on Facebook. At 90 years young, Pawlu is definitely living it up!

Watch Pawlu banging his way into the weekend:
