8 Signs You Know It’s Festival Season In Malta
The hell that is the summer festa season is around the corner. But for the time being, let’s rejoice, for the beginning of spring marks the arrival of festival season, with events like Annie Mac’s Lost & Found and several others all taking place and lined up.
Here are a few things to look forward to during festival season.
1. Hippie outfits and gladiator sandals
For those of you who haven’t been to India and returned a hippie, ’tis the season to do so. Bring on the hippie outfits, gladiator sandals and floral headbands. It’s Snapchat all over again, this time, live.
2. Chav Invasion
Chavs – the British equivalent of ħamalli – are soon to invade Buġibba (Bu-jee-bah). Prepare yourselves mentally for exposed butt cheek, a couple of inniqs here and there, and fake tans that make Donald Trump look anaemic. #OompaLoompaChic
3. Bare-chested guys
Skin, suf, sweat. It’s inevitable.
‘Jekk jerġa jimsaħ l-għaraq miegħi ħa narma nidgħi’
4. Going live on FB
If it’s not on Facebook, it didn’t happen.
5. The “drunk” girl who jumps the toilet queue
There’s always one…
6. Flying objects
What’s a party without a few flying objects to spice it up? Throw in a transparent beach ball to keep the crowd entertained for a while, a half-empty bottle of water and a flying sandal which may or may not hit you in the face like that drop beat just has. Boom shakalaka.
7. Overworn Wristbands
Let the world know.
‘Annie Mac x’jaħbat? Xi burger ġdid?’
8. Epic FB Statuses
Brace yourselves for the hijacking of 60% of your news feed;
‘Grande!’ ‘Epic night with the lads!’
‘Issa daqshekk għax dardart ‘l Alla, Jas.’
Take me back to Festa Frawli.
