Watch: Malta’s Mad Max? Żurrieq’s ‘Flying Drummer’ Takes To The Skies For Santa Katarina Feast
Malta’s village feasts are as unique and as extravagant as they get… so what better way to stand out than with a flying drummer?
TikToks uploaded by user festi_ta_malta6 from Żurrieq’s Santa Katarina feast this week have gone viral in the last couple of days, with one of them amassing over 51,000 views in less than 48 hours. And it’s pretty easy to see why.

The short clips depict Charlie Tanti, who is affectionately known by some as “the king of Żurrieq”. Equipped with a large drum and held floating just outside his każin as everyone cheers on from below, it’s easy to see why he’d be called that.
