Malta
The Maltese archipelago includes the islands of Malta,
Gozo, Comino, Comminotto and Filfla. Its situation in the
central Mediterranean has made it an important
strategic base since the earliest days of navigation. The
first civilisation to leave any significant remains
flourished in the third millennium BC, building many
megalithic temples. Later the island was occupied by
the Phoenicians, the Carthaginians and the Romans.
Independence from Britain was achieved in 1964, and
40 years on Malta was the smallest of the 10 countries
to join the EU in May 2004. From the MTV music festival
in Valletta to abseiling and climbing in Gozo, Malta
rocks. Small in size but big in character, Malta offers
cool cafes, buzzing night clubs, exhilarating activities,
exciting festivals and amazing archaeological wonders,
whatever the time of year. In the towns are medieval
walled citadels and splendid baroque churches and
palaces reflecting the rich history of the islands. The
Maltese islands have indeed been described as one big
'open-air museum'. Malta will reveal new surprises to
you at every turn. What makes the islands unique is that
so much of their past is visible today. It is easy to delve
into the islands' mysterious prehistory, retrace the
footsteps of St Paul or see where the Knights of St John
defended Christendom. Worlds apart from the main
resorts and the capital Valletta, are the islands' villages,
which are the soul of the islands' past. Yet with their
lively fiestas and unique everyday life, they are very
much part of the islands' culture today. Then there are
the seaside villages, where the rhythm of life is dictated
by fishing.
Currency Exchange: Money can be changed at banks,
bureaux de change, some hotels, and larger shops and
restaurants. Automated foreign exchange machines are
available at various locations on the islands. Exchange
bureaux are often open 24 hours a day. Some hotels,
larger shops and restaurants accept foreign currency.
The best rates of exchange will always be found at the
banks. No currency restrictions; amounts exceeding
EUR10,000 or equivalent must be declared if travelling
from or to a country outside the European Union.

Malta / Valletta
Incentives and Meetings in Malta
Malta, Gozo and Comino are set against a backdrop
of their 7,000 year history in the middle of the
crystalline Mediterranean Sea. Due to the strategic
position, the Islands have hosted some of the most
influential peoples in the prestigious history of the
Basin. These include the Phoenicians, Carthaginians,
Romans, Arabs, Normans, Spanish, the Knights of St
John, Napoleonic Troops and Napoleon himself, as
well as the British. All of these left their mark, making
Malta the island of rich cultural heritage, which it
is today. Pre-historic temples which predate the
pyramids in Egypt and Stonehenge, fortifications,
natural harbors, palaces and catacombs still stand
tall for all to admire. Mdina and Valletta, the medieval
capital and the capital city respectively are
masterpieces of artistic architecture. These are some
of the factors which make visits to the Maltese
Islands an outstanding and enriching experience with
long-lasting memories of its beauty and magic.
The Islands’ inherent attractions set the scene for
successful meetings, bringing people together in an
environment which fosters communication. The
gathering of people in Malta is simplified by the fact
that the islands are easily accessible from the main
European gateways, via a three hour flight.
Additionally, the smart and flexible local meetings
industry is always at hand to provide solutions
tailored to the needs of particular conference and
incentive groups. This willingness to personalize
events is further enhanced by the multitude of
languages spoken by local professionals, which
ensures a clear understanding with clients.
Communication is also facilitated as English is the
official business language of the Islands. In addition,
the Maltese Islands, are members of the European
Union, the Eurozone and the Schengen agreement.
The Island´s 5- and 4-Star hotels include
internationally renowned chains, as well as boutique
up-market properties. While the conference venues
also add to the local infrastructure supporting the
meetings industry. Local Quality Assured Destination
Management Companies (DMCs) develop innovative
programs, utilizing the scenic historic buildings as
striking venues for events. Furthermore, experience
in the meetings industry, coupled with their ability to
negotiate with other suppliers will ensure that clients
receive a solid value-for-money offer.
The local meetings industry players come together to
ensure the success of the event, providing specialist
on-the-ground support to develop event programs
which successfully meet clients’ needs.

Public Transportation
Buses
Bus service is regular and efficient. It’s extensive network
covers the whole of the island, with the main service
running through Valletta, the capital city. One can travel
from one end of the island to the other for less than one
Euro.
Taxis
Taxis can be identified by their all-white livery and
indicative number-plates. Black taxis usually indicate part
of a network and are usually more cost-effective;
however it is advisable to agree on the cost of the journey
with the driver beforehand. Since Malta is a compact
island, there is no need for trains or underground
transportation facilities.
Venues For Group Events
The Bay Arena in the popular St. Julian`s area, offers a large uninterrupted floor space, as well as a significant amount
of non-core space. It has the capacity of comfortably accommodating up to 5,000 patrons, which makes it an ideal venue

variety of in-house venues, to meet the needs of various group functions.
General Information
The Island´s picturesque beauty, the warm local
hospitality and the advantageous geographical position,
have attracted various conquerors and pirates to our
shores. Situated at the center of the Mediterranean (93
km/72 miles south of Sicily and 288 km/187 miles north
of Africa), the history of the Maltese Islands is full of epic
battles, typical of the noble history of the Basin.
Despite being small, various civilizations, from the
Phoenicians to the Romans, the Arabs, the Normans, the
Knights of the Order of St John, the French and the British
have coveted the Island, as either merchant or military
posts.
It was the Knights of St John (later known as the Knights
of Malta) who bestowed upon the Islands the wealth of
Baroque buildings that still proudly dot the streets of
the picturesque old cities. These buildings have aged
with sublime grace and have been restored with equal
elegance and therefore stand tall as a reminder of Malta’s
glorious past, which still has an active role to play in the
presence.
One of the most outstanding buildings, which dates back
to the beginning of their stay in Malta is Saint John’s
Cathedral, built to honor their patron saint, housing
Caravaggio’s chiaroscuro masterpiece, ‘The Beheading of
Saint John’. Another imposing edifice inherited from the
Knights is the ‘Sacra Infermeria’. Originally the Knights’
hospital, this is now known as the Mediterranean
Conference Centre, which like other palaces and
auberges has been refurbished and fitted with high-tech
equipment, transforming it into a conference venue fit
for royalty. In fact, it hosted the Commonwealth Heads
of Government Meeting in 2005, which was attended by
Queen Elizabeth II of England, as well as various heads of
state and political leaders.
Gozo
The sister island is greener and is more distinct in
character. There are regular ferry-crossings and seaplane
departing from Malta to Gozo that makes it an ideal place
especially small meetings, pre and post tours and
incentive activities. Gozo is renowned for its diving,
walking, cycling and abseiling sites. This island features
a variety of hotels and farmhouses, which offer an
alternative
authentic
accommodation
product,
contributing to the overall unique experience.
Comino
The smallest island can be reached by ferry. There is only
one hotel on the island and a handful of farmers. On this
peaceful island, there are no cars or noisy activities, just
small beaches and the breath-taking Blue Lagoon.
Places Of Interest
The 16th Century Walled Capital City with 5 gates was built by Jean de La Valette, French Grand Master of the Order of
the Knights of St. John of Jerusalem, after the epic siege of 1565. Places to visit include St. John's Cathedral, The Palace
of the Grand Master, the National War Museum and various other museums and churches.
The History of Mdina is as old as the history of Malta itself. Its origin can be traced back more than 4,000 years. Mdina,
the old capital of Malta, is a typical medieval city. The silent city, as it is known, commands a magnificent view of the
island and although it is fully inhabited, silence reigns supreme. Places of interest include the Cathedral, the Cathedral
Museum, and the National Museum of Natural History.
The Three Cities across the Grand Harbour to the south of Valletta are the historic fortified towns of Vittoriosa, Cospicua
and Senglea. They contain some of the most historic and cultural monuments in Malta. Particularly worth visiting is the
Folk Museum, housed in the Inquisitor's Palace in Vittoriosa, formerly the site of the Inquisitions in Malta, and the Maritime
Museum, also located in Vittoriosa.
The Citadel in Victoria Gozo was refortified in the 16th century by the Knights and it provided refuge for the numerous
attacks on Malta's sister island, Gozo, by the Turks and the Corsairs during that time.
Hypogeum is located in Tarxien. This is a megalithic temple which was used as a burial place dating back to ca. 3,600
BC. It was built during the megalithic period and was discovered in 1902.
The Manoel Theatre Built in 1732 in the capital city of Valletta, during the Grandmastership of the Grandmaster Manoel
de Vilhena. During the years, it fell into neglect but its doors opened again after the Second World War and today it is
considered as a prestigious and historic theater, which seats an audience of about 400.
St. Paul's Catacombs These are the largest catacombs found in the area of Rabat, dating back to the 4th and 5th century
AD, when they served as a burial place for the early Christians.
Ggantija Temples, Gozo "the Giant's Tower", attributed to a mythical giantess, is actually a temple, erected about
3500BC, and so one of the very first free standing buildings in the world. Actually it is two adjacent temples, the southern
one, on the left, having had part of its wall removed to allow the northern one to be built up against it.
