Must-see local gems
MUST-SEE HIDDEN GEMS
LASCARIS WAR ROOMS IN VALLETTA Let’s start off with a historical gem hidden underneath Malta’s capital city, Valletta. The Lascaris War Rooms are an underground complex of tunnels and rooms which housed the British War Headquarters where the defence and offense plans for Malta were strategically plotted during World War II. While each of the military services were allocated their own operations room, their leaders met inside the Combined Operations Room at the heart of the complex. This room was also the most heavily guarded, as it housed the encryption machines which were used to send and receive top secret communications. You can visit the chambers, which have recently been restored and transformed into an accessible museum by Fondazzjoni Wirt Artna in collaboration with the Malta Airport Foundation, from Monday to Saturday between 10am and 4.30pm*.
METROPOLITAN CATHEDRAL MUSEUM IN MDINA A testament to Malta’s rich religious and artistic heritage, the Metropolitan Cathedral Museum in Mdina is a sight to behold. Situated to the right-hand side of the Mdina Cathedral, the halls of the ornate baroque museum house exhibits raging from papal coins and sacred vessels, to rare books and religious paintings. One of the most fascinating exhibits is a recently restored 15th century triptych of the Madonna del Soccorso, which is one of Malta’s earliest Renaissance paintings, attributed to artist Antonio de Saliba.
Take a closer look at the work of art by visiting the Cathedral Museum in Mdina, which is open from Monday to Saturday between 9.30am and 4.30pm*.
TORRI XUTU IN WIED IŻ-ŻURRIEQ A few metres away from Malta’s iconic Blue Grotto in Żurrieq lies another landmark of historical importance which was recently restored by the Malta Airport Foundation. Torri Xutu is a watchtower in Wied iżŻurrieq which was used as an observation post by the coast guard during World War II. The 17th century tower is one of more than 25 watchtowers which were
constructed in strategic locations around the Maltese Islands to provide the archipelago with a robust defence system during the time of the Knights of St. John. The area in which the newly-restored tower stands today is protected as a Natura 2000 site, making it the perfect place to take a quiet stroll and enjoy a magnificent sunset.
SANTA MARIA CAVES IN COMINO You may have heard of Comino’s idyllic Blue Lagoon, but there is much more to this island paradise than meets the eye. Although the island is riddled with caves, the most impressive cave system, known as the Santa Maria caves, can be found on the northside of the island. Snorkelers and divers of all levels can visit this spot to discover the rich underwater life which calls Comino home, from the Fried Egg Jellyfish to the colourful Nudibranch, as the caves are shallow and drenched in sunlight, offering explorers crystal clear visibility underwater. Want to know more about Comino? Check out the Malta Airport Foundation’s documentary Comino: A Secret Paradise on YouTube.
*Note that due to the COVID-19 pandemic, some of the mentioned attractions may be closed. Please check the opening times and requirements before visiting.

Matthew Degiorgio
INTERVIEW WITH: THE MAN BEHIND THE EMPIRE
Photo: Tonio Lombardi
Gianpula Village has been around for almost 40 years. From indoor to outdoor nightclubs and sun-kissed rooftops to festival arenas, it is one of the best entertainment destinations in Malta. We catch up with the Managing Director, Matthew de Giorgio, to find out more
HOW DID IT ALL START?
Gianpula Village has been around for 40 years, when my parents started the business in 1980. It started, to be fair, as a small gathering between friends not with the intention of it becoming an entertainment spot. After a number of years it started growing slowly slowly. Also, it just started inside only, and then after a while it also evolved outdoors. A lot has been going on over the years, but obviously, due to competition and all, we had to start changing things up completely.
TELL US A LITTLE ABOUT HOW YOU GOT STARTED IN THE BUSINESS.
When I started at the age of 17/18 years old, the idea was to turn Gianpula into an entertainment village, with various nightclubs with different types of music. My father wanted me to start out at a very young age so I had started out by cleaning glasses and also making hotdogs. There was one saying I always remember him telling me. He told me “ I’m going to throw you into the pool, and it’s for you to get out of the pool or you’re going to drown”. That is what kept me sane in the sense of always wanting to achieve more and not let him down. It was a lot of pressure but at the same time it was something that I always wanted to do. I studied in the UK for five to six years. To be fair I never went to university, but headed straight into the business. I took over from my father completely, and he took a side in it when I was only 18 years old. I just hit the road running. I new exactly what I wanted for the entertainment industry in Malta because I knew from living abroad what Malta lacked. It was always a vision of mine to create an entertainment village.
HOW HAS GIANPULA VILLAGE GROWN INTO WHAT WE KNOW IT AS TODAY?
When people started coming to Gianpula, they were always a certain type of people. Now for me to get different types of people and different genres of music, I needed to open more outlets. You come here on a Friday night and you can listen to commercial in one club, techno in another club, and reggae in a completely different club. That is what made me want Gianpula to become an entertainment village. Saying that, I hardly drink and it’s more about me focusing on the business and wanting to succeed and take it to the next level… into an international level.
WHAT GIANPULA MILESTONES STICK OUT IN YOUR MIND?
Our biggest achievement as a club, was becoming the 57th nightclub around the world. We were the first Maltese nightclub to become part of this listing in 2017.
HOW HAS THE PANDEMIC AFFECTED YOU AND YOUR INDUSTRY?
It’s been very hard for us. I think at the beginning we didn’t accept it… we thought it was just a short span and everyone would get out of it pretty much quickly. June did come quickly but we were only open for 5 weeks. Now it’s hitting us even harder. We’ve realized that now it’s going to be for the long haul. The only situation for us to get back into business in the nightlife industry is for us to hit herd immunity, which according to the health department, is looking like September. For discos and nightclubs, this could be a complete disaster, not just Gianpula but even our competitors, who we speak to. They are basically telling us the same thing. This cant carry on for song long cause we will just be wiped out completely and will not be able to restart. We need actual help for the actual business, because one needs to understand that apart from wages, we have water, electricity and maintenance. You cannot just shut down the business and expect to reopen in September. It doesn’t work like that.
WHAT ARE YOU WORKING ON, SEEING AS CLUBS ARE CURRENTLY SHUT DOWN?
Well, at the moment, what we are basically doing is maintaining the venue. I’m not spending too much, because there is obviously a limit. This is a big circle and I think the government needs to help out immediately, with not just bars and ‘kazini’ but also discos and nightclubs in general.
We worked on a project, The Magical Illuminated Trail, which was a blessing in disguise. For a start, it helped us do something completely out of the norm. There were only two drive thrus during Christmas time. I was very happy because both of them did very well. At the end of the day, this helped suppliers and individuals who have been hit hard by the pandemic as well, so it was a blessing in disguise.
WHAT ABOUT PLANS FOR THE NEAR FUTURE?
There aren’t many ideas at the moment. We’re just hoping to restart as soon as possible because at the end of the day, a drive thru helps, but it’s not going to help long term. We have people telling us that we should change the way we operate. It is very difficult to change the way you operate as a nightclub. We cannot even do seated events at the moment. Hopefully, if bars and kazini restart, at least discos and nightclubs might actually restart as seated events and then obviously go onto the normal standing events. It’s a nightclub… you cannot tell people to come to sit on a chair. If people go to a nightclub, they want to go to listen to music, dance and enjoy it with friends. Post pandemic we are hoping to restart and restart with a bang. The advantage over here is that if we do restart in September, at least we do have indoor venues. Here we have a total of 11 venues… half of them are outdoor and half of them are indoor.
HAS GIANPULA ALWAYS BEEN KNOWN FOR CLUBBING?
I diversified into a corporate venue and it only lasted for two years. It didn’t work for us. We had to change it completely into a nightclub venue and it actually worked much better than the corporate side. People know Gianpula and Gianpula village as a brand more toward nightlife rather than corporate as well. So we had to find a balance and we took the decision of having all our venues completely nightclubs. I think more festivals are coming over. The help of foreign festivals coming over is helping the image of Malta grow drastically and even helping nightclubs to level it up and make it even more appealing when foreigners come over to the country.
WHAT DO YOU ENVISAGE FOR THE POST-PANDEMIC CLUBBING SCENE IN MALTA?
I think festivals in general will increase especially in 2022. Because of the situation of COVID-19 and not knowing when we can exactly restart, it is very hard for us to even plan what will happen this summer.
ANY FINAL WORDS OR TIPS?
I do hope that many people will take the vaccine because that’s the only way for us to get back to some sort of normality. Is there going to be a passport to enter an event? At the moment we don’t know. It will be great if we do know, but at the stage, from our end, we have no issue if there’s a vaccine passport as long as we restart.
LOCAL ATHLETES PERFORMING INTERNATIONALLY
Despite the uncertainty wrought by the pandemic, local athletes are still training hard, travelling around the globe and breaking records. We have put together a list of the female young guns that you ought to look out for
MYA AZZOPARDI
SWIMMER
Mya Azzopardi is an 18-year-old Maltese swimmer who competed in the women's 100 metre freestyle at the 2019 World Aquatics Championships. During that year, she won a whopping three bronze medals at the 2019 Games of the Small States of Europe, which were held in Budva, Montenegro. Fast forward to 2021, where Mya set a National Record during a 200m freestyle event in Turkey, called the International Turkcell competition. With her remarkable win, the swimmer registered a time of 2:06.48, improving her own mark of 2:06.76, which she set in Kazan, Russia during the LEN European Junior Championships in 2019. So impressive at such a young age, we just cannot wait to see what Mya has in store for us in the near future!
TENISHIA THORNTON
WEIGHTLIFTER
This 15-year-old weightlifter has broken no less than five national records, as she placed first in the B category of the 49kg weight class, at the European Championships in Russia. Thornton’s impressive results meant that she finished in 10th place overall – the best-ever result for a Maltese weightlifter at the European Championships. She also scored 489 Olympic qualification points and moved to Diamond Level in the Malta Weightlifting Association rankings. Tenishia has been raising the bar for the sport continuously, ever since she put on a whopping 159kg total performance, a 4kg improvement from her Youth World Championships performance in 2020, where she placed third.
HALEY BUGEJA
FOOTBALLER
Haley Bugeja is a 16-year-old Maltese footballer who plays as a forward for Italian Serie A club US Sassuolo, as well as Malta women's national team. The star footballer was voted as Malta’s Sportswoman of the Year in 2021 and has scored seven goals in 12 league appearances for Sassuolo. What's more, she currently stands at eighth in the league’s goal-scoring charts. It seems as though Haley's achievements are consistently impressing us all, this time landing a place on a prestigious list by the high-profile football portal Goal, of the 10 best wonderkids in women's football. Goal counts down the top talents born on or after January 1, 2002 from all around the world.
SOPHIE ABELA
BASKETBALLER
Sophie Abela, a 21-year-old Maltese basketballer currently playing for Ottawa Junior College in Colorado, has made history after becoming the first Maltese to win a regional JUCO tournament in the United States. Sophie was a key factor in her team's last-second win against eighth-ranked Nebraska Community College. OJC will now advance to the National Junior College Athletics Association Division I Championship in Texas. This makes Abela the first Malta international to achieve such a feat. At just 16, Abela played in Italy and a year later, she helped Malta secure the bronze in the FIBA U18 Women's European Championship and was voted the MVP of the tournament.
TARA VELLA CLARK
GYMNAST
At just 14-years-old, Tara Vella Clark made history back in 2020, when she became the first local representative to ever manage to qualify to a final, in a continental championship, which brings together Europe’s finest talent in the sport. During her qualifying routine, the young gymnast produced a strong performance on the beam when she managed to secure an impressive score of 12.200. Tara ended up in eighth place in the Beam final at the European Artistic Gymnastics Championship in Mersin, in Turkey. Tara went on to succeed as she won the Category II all round title and two apparatus finals in Serbia and placed fourth all-around in Slovakia. Keep shining!
Craig Macdonald
INTERVIEW WITH: THE MAN BEHIND TE FIT-TAZZA
Photo: Tonio Lombardi
Te Fit-Tazza, a Maltese art studio intriguyed by the mix of local aesthetic and identity, expressed throigh prints, and Souvenirs That Don't Suck, not one but two stores in Malta, on a mission to make souvenirs great again. We speak to Craig Macdonald, co-founder and illustrator, to get all the juicy details
TELL US A LITTLE ABOUT YOU
I’m Craig, the guy from Te Fit-Tazza and I take care of all the arts and creative. I got started in design at quite a young age. I was hanging around the skate park a lot and naturally, there was graffiti everywhere and a really cool art movement around the skate park. That set me on a path, where I really wanted to study design or do something creative. Eventually I started a side gig with my friend Andrew Farrugia called Te Fit-Tazza. It started out as a passion project and has since grown and grown into the studio that we’re sitting in today.
HOW WAS TE FIT-TAZZA STARTED?
In truth, I think it all started with Andrew and myself recognising the need to create something that is quintessentially Maltese and really highlight how much the country is changing, highlight how much of the country hasn’t really been celebrated, and what the unifying factors between Maltese people are; our collective memories.
In a nutshell, we just wanted to understand a bit more about the Maltese identity and the Maltese aesthetics, both how the Maltese view them and also how they’re perceived from an outsider’s point of view.
Over the years, this has developed until it’s almost morphed into a research project into Maltese art and design.
WHERE DID THE ICONIC NAME COME FROM?
The name for Te Fit-Tazza – well, basically, everyone knows that tea served in a glass is a very Maltese thing and it’s very symbolic of the Maltese identity, which is appropriated from the governing rulers of the time. In this case, it would be the British. Tea is a staple part of their lifestyle and taking that part of a foreign culture and repackaging it in a Maltese glass and serving it at the local band clubs – is very symbolic of what Te Fit- Tazza is all about.
HOW DID YOU END UP ACQUIRING SOUVENIRS THAT DON’T SUCK AND WHAT’S IT ALL ABOUT?
Souvenirs That Don’t Suck opened its doors towards the end of 2015, and was run by a German and an American expat, who were living in Malta. It just so happened that in the end of 2017, we had a discussion and they let us know that they wanted to move on from Malta. They offered us to take the brand lock, stock and barrel. That was exciting because whereas Te Fit Tazza is an exploration of the Maltese identity, Souvenirs That Don’t Suck is more of a celebration of it. It’s more fun, it can be quirky, and it can be humorous. Having these two platforms for us to play with was very exciting. Naturally, it also meant that we were suddenly in the retail game. We went from having an online shop to having a shop in Sliema.
TELL US SOME MORE ABOUT YOUR CONCEPTS FOR SOUVENIRS
With Souvenirs That Don’t Suck, the most prominent concept is called the Speak Maltese concept, which refers to the ‘Mela’ T-shirts, the ‘U Ejja!’s the ‘Orrajt’s, referring to all the words a Maltese person uses without even realising. Another concept we recently embarked upon was the series focused solely on the pastizz. We made coasters and t-shirts focused around pastizzi, which is, obviously, a very popular subject in Malta, because everyone loves pastizzi, and views them as a symbol and an icon.
Since COVID-19 hit, we also collaborated with Lovin Malta, called the Kwarantina collection. The idea was to create a time-stamp of the pandemic in Malta at the time. Whilst it’s a global pandemic, it’s the Maltese take on it.
HOW WAS GROWING UP IN MALTA INSPIRED YOU AND YOUR PROJECTS?
Growing up in Malta was a very different experience to, for instance, growing up in Malta in these days. I
remember a time when we could play in the streets without worrying about traffic. It was a simpler life and as time goes by, the country seems to getting more and more complicated. The biggest inspiration was the simplicity of life here in Malta and I think that this laid-back, simple life is what makes it so attractive to foreigners looking to relocate. We were really trying to raise awareness about the peaceful, tranquil lifestyle that Malta has and to be aware of how it’s being lost and changing as a result of… progress?
MANY OF YOUR WORKS BRING BACK A LOT OF MEMORIES FOR THE LOCAL…
Presenting something like an old Maltese literature book, to any outsider, it’s just another book. But to the people who actually lived with these items, it’s a bonding factor, what brings two Maltese people together, a shared memory. Another example would be the collaboration we did with Malta Doors, which highlights typically Maltese facades, and how personal and quirky they can be. All of our collections are thought out in a way that is going to instill some kind of emotion and this is where Te Fit Tazza and Souvenirs That Don’t Suck differentiate. The former is quintessentially for the local, for the Maltese person, it’s where we can really speak a language that locals will understand and that foreigners will appreciate, based on aesthetics. With Souvenirs That Don’t Suck, we have the luxury of being able to target tourists and locals. The first collection, Series 1, was very surface level. We got all the beautiful scenes in Malta that we could think of that were obvious to us, which could be simplified and presented in a stylistic manner. The Elements of Malta series started as just three buses. From the buses, we moved onto the bus tickets and then, we thought ‘Okay, there’s a memory there, attached to this seemingly insignificant item.’ Developing this collection actually led us onto understanding just how the nostalgic element can be attached to the art and can make people feel something. For example, I remember being a kid and walking by the Red Tower with my grandfather and my cousins and stopping for a picnic. It’s not just about creating a print of somewhere Maltese, it’s about creating a print or selecting a place, which has so much more meaning for the individual who has been there, or held the bus ticket in their hand and counted down the numbers to figure out who their crush is.
HOW DO YOU FEEL THE PANDEMIC HAS AFFECTED YOUR BUSINESS AND THE INDUSTRY?
I think in general, pre-pandemic, Malta was booming. Everywhere you looked, everyone was ready and gearing up. It was almost as if everyone was onto something big. When the pandemic hit, it took the wind out of everyone’s sails. For us to point out that we’re struggling would imply that we’re the only ones, which is not the case. The business side suffered a hit but what we gained in being able to sit back, assess, restructure, adapt and ultimately, grow in other parts of our business, is invaluable.
Coincidentally, two weeks before the first case, we signed for a new shop right in the heart of Valletta. I would say, opening a new shop in a pandemic would be considered to be a bit bonkers, but we went through and in hindsight, it was one of the best things we could have done. We had three new collections for Te Fit Tazza, all three of them collaborations, one with Malta Type, celebrating the Xmun Borg Bakery, which is now Noni. We also continued our collaboration with Malta Doors, which resulted in three new prints and finally, a collaboration with the Maltese architect, Richard England. From the Souvenirs side, we introduced facemasks, something we would never have done without the pandemic and the pastizzi t-shirts.
WHAT CAN WE EXPECT FROM TE FIT-TAZZA AND SOUVENIRS THAT DON’T SUCK POST-PANDEMIC?
Post-pandemic, I would say that Te Fit-Tazza will keep on doing what we’ve been doing which is: researching the Maltese identity and trying to create a road map of where the Maltese aesthetics originate from, with a view to create something modern out of them.
With souvenirs, once tourists start flooding back into the country, we’ll be in a better position to start exploring new products, collaborating with other Maltese creative and suppliers, and really being able to take the shop to the next level.
