Location

If you are booking show only tickets, the best method to get to the venue is by taxi. Your tickets will include all the correct information and details to give to your driver. If you take the All-Inclusive Package, then return shared transport to and from the venue from selected locations in Malta is included.

Public transport now has a route that passes close by the venue so getting to the venue is possible by public transport. However when the show finishes it would be more difficult to find transport back since this would be late at night and no public transport passes by after the show. Therefore we do not advise using public transport unless you are ready to use a private taxi to return. The bus route is 64 and the stop is Hobz. (correct at time of update 29-9-2016). You can check the route here under Qormi: https://www.publictransport.com.mt/en/route/64

Return transport to and from the venue from selected locations in Malta is included in the all-inclusive package. This is shared transport and other guests may be joining you on the trip to and from the venue. There are various pick-up points to choose from in Cirkewwa, Mellieha, St Paul’s Bay, Bugibba, Qawra, Salina, St Julian’s, Ballutta, Sliema, Gzira, Attard and Valletta. The full list can be found in the map or here: Pick Up Points

Usually booking transport back at 10:45 PM (22:45) should be good. But it would be best to check with us once at the venue, and book your transport back before going up to the show.
