Sep 9 2023

Unfortunately, do to the weather and its forecast being unfavourable, this magnificent house’s decorations could not be set up for long this year.

The house was set up ahead of the feast as is done each year by Malcolm Pirotta, turning heads by everyone who attends the local feast.

The house is even more impressive when lit up at night, with the red hues shining throughout the street as Pirotta joins his fellow Naxxar residents in celebration of the feast.

Unfortunately, you will have to wait till next year to see it live again due to the weather being a hazard to the decorations. Have you ever spotted it?

Sep 9 2023

Despite the strong winds making the race all the more difficult and managing to sink the boats of four teams, Cospicua and Vittoriosa emerged victorious for this year’s Victory Day Regatta.

Taking place in the Valletta Grand Harbour, Cospicua and Vittoriosa’s boats sank shortly after crossing the finish line.

Whereas Marsamxett managed to finish third, Marsa and Senglea’s boats also sank midway through the race, with their crews rescued by safety officials at the race.

Race officials had analysed whether the race could have taken place, with the earliest it could be postponed to being September 29th. However, due to the possibility of the weather being worse, the race was staged yesterday given that the weather seemed more promising earlier during the day.

The incidents did not stop the winners from celebrating however, returning to their respective clubs to enjoy their achievements.
