Camilleri Wines are again this year associating themselves with the upcoming 18th edition of the BJ’s Music Marathon due to start on Easter Monday, 24th March. Camilleri Wines will again be present at the one-week non stop marathon with their Palatino range of wines.
The annual event at the popular Paceville night club seeks to raise funds for the Millennium Chapel’s social project WOW - Wishing Others Well. To date, BJ’s Night Club has collected over € 279,000 throughout the past editions. A number of major bands have already confirmed participation in this year’s edition namely Salt, Fakawi, Fire, Drive, The Myth, Carrie, Metrokween, White Crimson, Explicit, the Blues Band, the Quaks and a multitude of individual musicians such as Godwin Lucas, Harry Edelston and Nadine Axisa, Paul Giordmaina and many others.
Etienne Mallia, Marketing Executive at Camilleri Wines expressed the company’s satisfaction to be once again associated with this year’s edition. “Following the success and positive feedback generated from our past two year’s sponsorship of this popular music marathon, we have again this year opted to support this worthy cause by ensuring a flow of our Palatino wines during the one-week event. Palatino is one of our flagship products and this is why we choose this brand to represent us at this exciting musical event,” said Etienne Mallia.
Thanking Camilleri Wines for their support to the marathon, BJ’s owner Philp Fenech referred to the marathon as more than just an annual event. “The BJ’s Music Marathon is nowadays an institution that has throughout the years flourished, establishing itself as one of the main musical highlights of the year. It is a music event aimed at preserving live music as a form of entertainment that has managed to attract an ever increasing niche market all year round. Besides, we use this attractive venue to support a most worthy cause - WOW - Wishing Others Well – a social initiative undertaken by the Millennium Chapel.”
Mr Fenech added “the uniqueness of the BJ’s Music Marathon lies in the fact that it manages to bring all styles of music under one roof, many times, in an improvised style. Musicians regularly convene at BJ’s and improvise music sessions – the result of which is an exquisite musical experience for our patrons to enjoy.”
This year’s BJ’s Music Marathon 2007 will kick off on Monday 24th March at 17.00hrs with a multitude of specially chosen musicians. Musicians who would like to participate are to contact Philip Fenech on 99493534 or BJ’s Nightclub on 21377642 (after 10 pm).
