Malta Public Transport is announcing that Special Services will be provided to facilitate travel for all those attending the highly anticipated Isle of MTV event taking place at the Floriana Granaries on Tuesday, July 18th, 2023. The annual music festival organised by MTV has become a key fixture in Europe’s festival calendars, with Malta hosting the event since 2007.
The Special Services are part of the free public transport initiative, launched in October 2022 with the aim of encouraging more people to travel by bus. All personalised Tallinja Card holders can therefore travel free of charge, while cash tickets at €3 per passenger will also be available for any passengers who do not have a valid Tallinja Card.
Malta Public Transport will be providing special bus services departing from the Valletta Bus Terminal. The bus services will commence at 23:00hrs, with the final trips leaving Valletta at 01:30hrs. Passengers are encouraged to locate the departure point of their route, since special services will all be departing from Zone A.
