Crowds turn up to enjoy fireworks festival

The Malta International Fireworks Festival continues from Ghajn Tuffieha tomorrow with competitive displays. The festival started in Marsaxlokk yesterday when thousands of people turned up to watch the spectacular pyro-musical competitive programme that started with a display by Focs d’Artifici Europla from Spain, followed by Malta’s own Mount Carmel Fireworks Factory from Zurrieq and the Lieto Fireworks Factory from Italy. Both tomorrow and on Tuesday Arriva buses, which are providing extra buses and shuttle journeys, are being allowed access.
