Hard Rock Cafe has found a new home in St George's Bay, St Julian's, the heart of Malta's entertainment capital.

The opening builds on a long-standing partnership between Hard Rock International and the db Group, which first brought the legendary brand to Malta in 2000, where it opened at Bay Street.

Over the past twenty years, Hard Rock has grown into a true institution on the island, with an outlet at Malta International Airport and another at Valletta waterfront.

From birthdays and corporate get-togethers to bachelor and hen parties, Hard Rock has long been the venue of choice for groups looking to celebrate in style.

The new St George's Bay location takes that legacy to a whole new level. With seating for more than 180 people and a large terrace overlooking the bay, the new Hard Rock Cafe offers guests the brand's signature blend of authentic American cuisine, legendary hospitality, and an atmosphere steeped in music history.

The venue features a purpose-built stage that will host live weekly entertainment, with a programme spanning live music, comedy nights and more. With its generous capacity and party-ready atmosphere, the venue is perfectly suited to the large groups and celebrations that have made Hard Rock a Maltese favourite for two decades.

True to the Hard Rock tradition, the cafe showcases an impressive collection of authentic music memorabilia, including items belonging to some of the biggest names in music history such as The Beatles, Duran Duran, The Black Eyed Peas, Katy Perry and much more.

Guests can explore these one-of-a-kind pieces while enjoying the unmistakable Hard Rock experience.

The new venue also features a dedicated Rock Shop®, offering Hard Rock's world-famous branded merchandise and collectibles. The St George's Bay location joins the brand's existing Rock Shops in Valletta, at Malta International Airport, and at the Valletta Waterfront, further strengthening Hard Rock's presence across the island.

The opening of the Hard Rock Cafe forms part of the db Group's wider vision for St George's Bay, a transformative project set to redefine hospitality, leisure, and entertainment in Malta.

The Hard Rock Cafe St George's Bay is now open to the public, seven days a week.
