What is the Malta Carnival?
Malta's annual carnival takes place in February and is among the island's oldest known celebrations.
Carnival week is a chance to let your hair down! Brightly colored floats are perched on lorries ready for the parade, while children run around in fancy costumes. Malta’s main nightlife area, Paceville, sees late-night carnival goers pile into its clubs and bars ready to party into the early hours.
Don’t miss this colorful side of Malta!
