“Il-Karnival tas-Sajf mhux biss huwa opportunità għan-nies li jgħixu f’Malta biex jesperjenzaw il-kuluri, karrijiet u ż-żfin li jġib miegħu l-Karnival ta’ Malta fuq skala iżgħar, imma wkoll huwa mezz li bih nistgħu nxerrdru l-għarfien dwar il-karnival bħala tip ta’ artiġġjanat artisiku,” saħaq il-Ministru Bonnici.
“Ta’ kull sena, Il-Karnival ta’ Malta li norganizzaw fi Frar jirnexxielu jattira eluf ta’ Maltin u turisti. Madankollu, ħafna mit-turisti li jżuru pajjiżna fis-Sajf ma jkollhomx l-opportunità li jesperjenzaw l-arti u l-artiġġjanat tal-Karnival. B’hekk, Il-Karnival tas-Sajf huwa mezz li bih inxerrdu t-talenti tad-dilettanti tal-karnival ma’ udjenza aktar wiesgħa fiż-żmien meta pajjiżna jara l-aktar turisti matul is-sena” stqarr Aaron Zahra, iċ-Chairman ta’ Festivals Malta.

“Din l-attività għandha importanza konsiderevoli għal Festivals Malta. Dan għax filwaqt li nagħtu opportunità oħra lill-artisti dilettanti tal-Karnival sabiex juru x-xogħol brillanti tagħhom, ndewqu wkoll lin-nies li jgħixu Malta u Għawdex ftit minn dak li jistgħu jistennew fil-Karnival ta’ Malta li jsir fi Frar” qal Frans Agius, il-Kap Eżekuttiv ta’ Festivals Malta.

F’din l-edizzjoni se naraw ħdax-il karru kif ukoll parteċipant mill-gżira Għawdxija. Dawn is-serati se jkunu mżejna bi żfin u allegrija kif jafu jagħmlu l-parteċipanti tal-karnival Malti,” kompla Jason Busuttil, id-Direttur Artistiku tal-Karnival ta’ Malta.

“Every year, the Malta Carnival which we organise in February attracts thousands of Maltese people and tourists. That being said, many tourists who visit our country in summer do not have the opportunity to experience the art and artisanal work that make up Carnival. Therefore, Il-Karnival tas-Sajf is a means by which we can share the talents of Carnival artisans with a wider audience during the period when Malta is visited by the most tourists” stated Aaron Zahra, Festivals Malta’s Chairman.
