The Victoria and the Palace Hotels’ annual trade party this year was held at the new V5 Bar at the Valletta Waterfront. As in previous years, the trade party centred on a particular theme. The theme chosen for this year was America and included a feast of typical American food. An Elvis impersonator greeted guests at the door. DJ Gianni and his band added their particular touch to the great atmosphere with an evening of music that was enjoyed by all.

The guests, hosted by the Victoria and the Palace hotels’ general manager Claire Xuereb, included AX Holdings chairman, Angelo Xuereb, together with representatives of various companies within the tourist industry, such as destination management companies, tour operators and local corporate clients who have supported both hotels in the past year.
