To celebrate Freedom Day, celebrated annually on the 31st of March, the Triton Fountain at the capital city of Valletta’s entrance was lit up with the colours of the Maltese flag – red and white.
A photo shared by Labour MP Omar Farrugia shows the fountain from a sky view donning the traditional colours as they envelop the base of the Triton Fountain’s inner construct.

The Maltese islands continued to break local records over this Holy Weekend as many Christians around the island celebrate Easter through various traditional practices.
One notable record was broken on Maundy Thursday by 7 year old Żurrieq resident Edward Żammit, who became the youngest boy to guess the largest amount of Good Friday statues and the churches from whence they are issued.
Edward managed to guess a whopping 173 out of 175 in exactly 16 minutes and 32 seconds.
Meanwhile, more candle related records were broken by Siġġiewi’s Każin Banda San Nikola.
The first record consisted in the largest amount of lanterns (fjakkoli in Maltese) with a total of 4177.
The second record was in regards to the size of the cross formation created through the organisation of said lanterns. The cross had a length of 91 metres 50cm and a width of 46 metres 30cm. 1,245 lanterns were used to create the cross.
