One viral video suggests the group spent up to €750,000 on the stunt, though the exact amount remains unconfirmed.

The db Foundation has raised €8,419 for the Karl Vella Foundation through a charity dinner featuring the three finalists from MasterChef Malta Season 2.
Held on 4th June at LOA Restaurant in St Paul’s Bay, the event welcomed over 100 guests who enjoyed a specially curated three-course menu prepared by Nicholas Bartolo, Florina Silvio, and Christina Mousu all in support of a worthy cause.
All costs for the evening were fully covered by the db Group, ensuring that the entire amount raised went directly to the Karl Vella Foundation. The foundation, set up in memory of Karl Vella who passed away from cancer in 2014, provides free psychological support to families coping with serious illness or loss. To date, it has assisted over 350 grieving adults and more than 700 children.
Dr Sandra Sladden, chairperson of the db Foundation, highlighted the value of community support, “Our collaboration with MasterChef Malta has already raised over €20,000 for charity through two fundraising dinners, and we look forward to continuing this tradition in the years ahead. It’s incredible how much value we can create for hardworking NGOs when we rally the community for good causes.”
A similar dinner hosted by finalists from Season 1 of MasterChef Malta last year raised funds for the Ursuline Sisters.

Malta has successfully secured European Union funding for the second phase of its onshore power supply project at the Malta Freeport. The Ministry for Economy, Enterprise and Strategic Projects, in collaboration with the Malta Freeport Corporation, submitted a proposal early in 2025 under the Connecting Europe Facility Transport Call. Out of 20 submissions from EU member states, only four projects, including Malta’s, were approved.
The project aims to install high-voltage shore power connections at South Quay Terminal 2 and West Quay Terminal 1 within the Freeport. With a total investment cost of €18.4 million, the European Commission has approved a co-financing grant of €12.35 million for this initiative.
This funding follows the ongoing first phase of the project, which focuses on providing shore power at North Quay Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 and is co-financed by the EU Just Transition Facility Fund. The current phase will be supported through the Connecting Europe Facility.
Malta is undertaking a total of four onshore power supply projects, two at the Grand Harbour TEN-T Core Port and two within the Malta Freeport at the TEN-T Core Port of Marsaxlokk.
