The Festa Frawli will be held next Sunday 26 April and is organised exclusively by the Mgarr local council and Kummissjoni Lejla Mgarrija with support from other voluntary villagers. All of them give their time freely and pour in considerable effort to make the event possible. Starting from the farmers, who set aside produce for the event, to renowned Maltese companies which freely loan the multitude of equipment needed, donate raw material and products, and also make available their employees to help out. Thus, the event is a non-commercial event with the sole intent of promoting Mgarr products.
