The Floriana Local Council, Malta is organizing the Second National Festival of Mechanised Fireworks (locally known as "Nar ta' l-Art") which will be held in Saint Publius Square on Saturday, 5 April 2008, on the eve of the feast of St Publius, Floriana's Patron Saint.
Ground fireworks are a unique Maltese pyrotechnic tradition, and since the festival will be held on the eve of Floriana's Parish Feast, those who attend the festival will also get a taste of the lavish local festivities which are a hallmark of Maltese Festas. The Festival will be held in the largest square in Malta.
A total of 16 different firework factories will field two ground firework pieces each, to compete for numerous prizes that will be awarded by an international jury.
Entry is free, to the general public.
