The final night of the Farsons Beer Festival on 3rd August is guaranteed be a spectacle for all those present.

After an absence of several years, Ira Losco’s big return to the Farsons Beer Festival coincides with Cisk’s 90th birthday and an amazing evening has been planned. In fact, it has just been announced that this year’s X-Factor winner and Malta representa­tive for the Eurovision Song Contest, Michela, will be a guest performing on stage with Ira Losco for the first time in Malta.

Ms Losco will be performing a 2-hour live show with her all-star live band and other guests.

“It has been a number of years since Ira and her band have performed at the Farsons Beer Festival and we are very excited to have her perform on our closing night,” said Mr Adolf Vella, Business Support Manager at Simonds Farsons Cisk plc and Festival Coordinato­r.

Following her recent massive hit ‘Hey Now’ and several other singles such as ‘We are the Soldiers’, ‘One In A Million’, ‘Bad Habits’, ‘OMG’ and more recently, ‘High’, from her double album ’No Sinner No Saint’, her management has announced that Ms Losco has something very special planned for this show where she will be launching her next single featuring a very special guest.

The audience present on the night will also have an opportunit­y to buy exclusive merchandis­e, meet and have their picture taken with Ms Losco and her guests at a Meet & Greet session happening right after the show.

Ms Losco last year celebrated 15 years in music during which she has been consistent­ly active having released six studio albums, two remix albums, one DVD, a 400-page photograph­ic journal, over 20 music videos and singles, performed several big concerts abroad and sold out shows in Malta and recently has also been asked to be part of the recordbrea­king TV show X-Factor airing Season 2 this coming October.

Additional­ly, to celebrate Cisk’s 90th birthday, 6,000 interactiv­e LED wristbands will be given out to the audience. These wristbands will be activated during the show by Ira Losco’s music for a truly immersive experience.

“Definitely a show not to be missed,” commented Mr Steve Borg, Cisk Brand Executive at Simonds Farsons Cisk plc. “We also have other surprises up our sleeves planned for the night and we definitely urge our loyal supporters to attend what promises to be a spectacula­r evening.”

Ira Losco and her band will be on stage at 10.30pm. Recently discovered stars Nicole Frendo and Owen Leuellen will be performing before her, starting at 9pm.

The Farsons Beer Festival is organized by Simonds Farsons Cisk plc. For informatio­n, news and updates, follow the Farsons Beer Festival on Facebook and Instagram.
