Din l-Art Helwa’s Msida Bastion Historic Garden in Floriana will once more be holding its Annual Spring Fair 2018 on Sunday 29 April between 10am and 3pm. This fun packed event is perfect for a family day out when the public can enjoy this most picturesqu­e site that overlooks Marsametto Harbour. The Garden was voted by the National Geographic Intelligen­t Travel blog as one of the most beautiful historical cemetries in Europe.

Everyone is invited to join this fun packed event, suitable for all the family, enjoying the views which this Garden offers. The Historical Re-enactment Group Malta will be present wearing their Napoleonic period military costumes. Flowers, plants, cakes, books and many other items will be on sale during the day. For our younger visitors, we will be providing activities such as face painting, bouncing castle, candy floss, popcorn and also sandwiches, hotdogs and hamburgers. Along with all this, there will be a raffle with rich gifts, a treasure hunt, tombola, and a painting exhibition in oil pastels, charcoal, ink, watercolou­r and acrylics by artist Ian Camilleri.

Entrance fee for adults is of €2 and children under 12 years, enter free of charge. This is a fund raising activity and all funds collected will be dedicated to the upkeep of this unique place. The Msida Bastion Garden is best found by turning left at Great Siege Road and then taking the second fork left beyond the Public Library.
