Malta,?the ultimate meetings & incentives destination

The Maltese Islands, nestled in the Mediterranean’s core, offer an energetic setting for corporate events, including Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions (M.I.C.E.). As a thriving Eurozone economy, Malta draws elite businesses and selective organisations. These entities are drawn to the archipelago’s distinctive fusion of historical richness, cultural depth, and modern sophistication when planning their important assemblies.

The Maltese Islands, strategically positioned at the crossroads of Europe, boast a three-hour flight radius to major European cities and are linked to the East with regular flights to Istanbul and Dubai.

Accommodating a diverse range of preferences and budgets, Malta offers over 7,000 beds in luxurious 5-star hotels and more than 15,000 in 4-star accommodations. These venues, including internationally recognised brands such as Hyatt, InterContinental, Hilton, and Marriott, feature in-house conference facilities and dedicated professionals, ensuring swift execution.

Malta’s cultural landscape, enriched with over 7,000 years of history, is a palimpsest of Phoenician traders, Arab conquerors, and European rulers. With three UNESCO World Heritage Sites—including the entire capital city Valletta, the Megalithic Temples, and the subterranean wonder of the ?al Saflieni Hypogeum—Malta is a mosaic of historical splendour.

The islands of Gozo and Comino offer an enchanting contrast. Gozo, a serene sister, invites wellness retreats amid rugged hills and cultural landmarks, while Comino provides a slice of paradise for water enthusiasts with pristine diving and snorkelling experiences.

Corporate teams can engage in outdoor team-building exercises, sail the Mediterranean Sea, or explore kayaking adventures along picturesque coastlines. The islands’ rich history provides a backdrop for cultural explorations and interactive learning experiences, combining leisure with team enrichment.

Malta’s gastronomy, a celebration of Mediterranean roots fused with historical influences, features fresh, sun-kissed ingredients transformed into delectable dishes. With an exciting dining scene ranging from traditional street food to Michelin-starred restaurants and a wide international array, Malta’s culinary offerings are diverse and plentiful, entertaining an audience with differing requirements.

A vibrant cultural scene, with a calendar brimming with events and festivals, ensures lively streets year-round. From the Rolex MiddleSea Race in October to the International Fireworks Festival in Spring, there are ample opportunities for enjoyment and networking in a festive atmosphere.

Having English as the official language of commerce together with Maltese, a Semitic language, and a wide proficiency in other European languages, seamless communication for visitors worldwide is ensured.

Malta’s M.I.C.E. infrastructure is world-level, featuring five convention centres equipped to host any type of event. The Mediterranean Conference Centre in Valletta, a historical masterpiece, stands as the flagship venue converted to host modern-day events.

From the turquoise embrace of the sea to the architectural elegance of historic courtyards and modern luxury venues, Malta offers a breath-taking setting for every vision. Events held on the islands combine natural beauty with architectural finesse, leaving a lasting impression.

At the heart of Malta’s MICE industry is the VisitMalta Incentives & Meetings (VMIM) team. The team at Head Office, together with the global team, provides comprehensive support, tools, and personalised assistance to ensure your event’s success.
