Tower of Light fireworks spectacle lights up Mqabba skies

Aug 15 2022

Celebrating on the eve of the Feast of Santa Marija, the night sky above Mqabba was lit up with an absolute spectacle of pyrotechnical skill and colour.

Attendees of the event were absolutely dazzled by the best of what the island’s fireworks professionals created.

Among the sights was the Tower of Light, a tower which stands at a height of around 55 meters, becoming one of the many highlights of the ninety minute aerial fireworks program set up by the Santa Maria Fireworks Association on Sunday evening.

The preparations date back a year ago, with workers and a large amount of volunteers picking up pace in lieu of the feast’s eve. They had to make sure the fireworks were not only in safe and expert condition but that the spectacle was synchronised to the music played throughout the event.

This is the ninth time the spectacle was put up in Mqabba, and following two years of COVID induced hiatus, all those passionate about such gems of Maltese culture were undoubtedly expecting a big return. And it definitely did not disappoint!

But that’s not all as on the same night we will be playing at the same prestigious club for Armin Van Buuren. Here, he will have a 5 hour set in the world famous Wild Corner again (WC – and yes, there is a club in the toilets!)

The following day, Edd will make his way to Ushuaia, which also made the list of the top clubs in the world to play for other massive name of Ants.

This is yet another massive deal for a Maltese artist, especially considering he will be the first one from the island to do so at the age of 22.

Such an achievement will surely pave the way for more local creators to strive for more as this is proof it’s all possible.
