Freedom Day – Public Holiday (Malta)

Please be advised that our Malta office will be closed on Thursday 31st March to honour the public holiday, Freedom Day.

This is a particularly special holiday in Malta as it marks the treaty and withdrawal of the Royal Navy and the British troops from Malta on the 31st March, 1979.

As the name suggests, the day is a day of celebrating freedom – freedom from foreign occupation, power and military, ultimately giving Malta back its independence.

Traditional celebrations include a competitive regatta in the Grand Harbour, military marches and ceremonial celebrations at the War Memorial in Floriana.

NB: Our offices in the Isle of Man and Hong Kong will remain open as usual.
