On Friday, September 27, applications closed for the fifth edition of Mużika Mużika, organized by Festivals Malta. Once again, there was a very positive response with numerous submissions from composers, singers, and local bands across various musical genres.

Festivals Malta CEO, Frans Agius, stated, “As in previous years, Mużika Mużika has received a very positive response from local artists, with a strong number of submissions. This clearly shows that Mużika Mużika has established itself as a leading festival in our country’s cultural calendar, not only among our audiences but also with the artists, composers, and authors, without whom this festival would not be possible. I thank everyone who submitted their application.”

The process now continues with Mużika Mużika’s Board and the Festivals Malta team, entering the next phase of evaluation sessions by an expert jury. The top 30 songs will be chosen, after which they will be performed live with a backing track before a different jury. This year, 16 semifinalist songs will compete at the festival in March next year. Unlike previous editions, the first night on Thursday, March 27, will not be an eliminatory round to allow participants to enjoy the festival more fully.

Festivals Malta and the Mużika Mużika Board would like to thank all artists for their submissions and wish them success.

The semifinalists will be announced following the live auditions in October. Mużika Mużika 2025 will take place from March 27 to 29 next year.
