Details about this year’s edition of Kuraġġ were announced during a press conference addressed by Her Excellency Myriam Spiteri Debono, President of Malta.

The President explained that the concert is inspired by the courage, resilience, and hope of patients who benefit from the assistance of The Malta Community Chest Fund (MCCF).

For this reason, she appealed to the public to support the concert, helping to raise essential funds for the ongoing work of the MCCF.
