About the city: Floriana
Floriana, a historic town at the gateway to Valletta, stands out as one of Malta’s most practical hubs for concerts, sports events and major public gatherings. Thanks to its compact size, proximity to the capital and recognizable open spaces, Floriana offers visitors an easy combination of events, walking, gastronomy and Mediterranean atmosphere.
Transport connectivity is one of the town’s main advantages. Floriana is located next to Valletta Bus Terminal, an important hub of the Malta Public Transport network, and it is also easy to reach from Malta International Airport by bus routes, taxi or organized transfer. The proximity of the terminal, bus stops and areas such as Floriana Park and Ride makes access to event spaces easier, including Pjazza San Publiju, nearby stadiums and venues in the wider Valletta area.
Before or after a concert, it is worth walking to the Triton Fountain, the town gardens and the bastions overlooking Grand Harbour. A short walk also leads toward Valletta’s old town, squares, cafés and waterfront promenades, so Floriana offers more than just the event itself: a practical location, a pleasant atmosphere and an excellent starting point for experiencing Malta.
