We are committed to continuing our support for artists and organisers to improve the quality of cultural events in Malta,” stated Minister Bonnici.
The Minister added that over the years, Rock’N Malta has benefitted various local events such as Rock the South, Dark Malta, Earth Garden, Għaxaq Music Festival and more, as well as concerts by artists like Lordi, Anastasia, Dream Theatre, Steve Hackett, and others.
