This year’s Kissing Marathon organised by Bay Street for the third consecutive year will be of 20 hours duration. This is twice as long as last year’s record set by the winning couple Louis Agius and Samantha Lautier Agius.

The marathon starts on Saturday at 7pm and comes to an end on Sunday at 4pm.

Entry is free and open to applicants over 18. The kiss has to be on the lips. Competition rules demand decency and good taste at all times. Applications can be collected any day from the Marketing Department of the Bay Street Complex in St Julian’s or by calling on 2372 2335 or 9945 7784.
