7 things to do in Gozo this weekend!
The Teamsport Gozo Half Marathon weekender has arrived! This will be, without any doubt, the most innovative event for all running lovers in the Maltese Islands. But this does not mean that we will forget about those who are not interested in running! Although Gozo is a small island, there’s a lot to see and do, and the following are the top 7 things to do in Gozo this weekend!
1. Science in the Citadel
We have not forgotten our science lovers! The event will consist of scientific shows, talks, workshops, experiments, magic, dance and all the fun of the fair! There will be something for each member of the family. This event will take place on the 27th April and will commence at 10am!
2. Teamsport Gozo Half Marathon EXPO
For the first time ever in the Maltese running scene, the 2019 Teamsport Gozo Half Marathon will be spread over two days and instead of the traditional 5-hour event, we will be transforming April’s last weekend into a celebration of all that is running.
This historic event will take place on the 27th April and will be located at the iconic Ġgantija Temples, which also happen to be a UNESCO World Heritage site. The event will consist of a series of informative talks, lectures from distinguished athletes and a specialized training area for our younger athletes.
Anyone who wishes to attend our EXPO, kindly register on gozomarathon.org/expo. We hope to see you all for this historic event!
3. Fireworks Festival
The Malta International Fireworks Festival, which is being organized by the Ministry for Tourism and the Malta Tourism Authority, will be a competitive spectacle of fireworks, including a Pyro musical competition. The event will take place in Xaghra, on the 27th April (evening) and will be the perfect event to relax, between our EXPO and the Teamsport Gozo Half Marathon.
4. National Dance Company announces its 2nd National Tour.
