To all of you who are going to attend for this year Firework Festival in Malta on the 29-30 th April, please note I was informed by the person in charge that he will be happy to provide a VIP seat for you to watch the fireworks. Also we are going to organise a tour to some of the Firework factories in Malta. Who is interested, please write to me off list on my e-mail address, tbusuttil@euroweb.net.mt. It is important to give details regarding the place were you will be staying so we can provide transport. It is important that I receive the information by not later than 10/04/06
Regards.

I'm extremely jealous of everyone who's attending - I'll be waiting with bated breath to see any pics/vids/writeups you come back with!

May the photography gods look kindly on your ventures - may your focus be steadfast, strong and true :D

I can only imagine what Orzella will be offering up for the finale! The title ?The Power of Fire? certainly suggests that it's going to be rather loud :lol:

Have fun and stay green over there.

Intresting bit of history.

This Sunday is the 30th of April, marking the ancient festival of Beltane.
Beltane is the midpoint in the Sun's progress between the Vernal Equinox and Summer Solstice.

The word Beltan in Wicca means "Fire in the sky."

Looks to be a fine weekend :D
