A dance party will enthrall the audience during Malta Calls, organised by Valletta 2018 and ŻfinMalta. The party will take place on Friday 20th July from 20.00 onwards at St Clare’s College Secondary School Grounds (ex Sir Adrian Dingli) in Pembroke.

Malta Calls is a unique experience of music and dance incorporated with visual projections by Shaun Prickimage and Dan Strutt; two household names in the international  audiovisual industry who have previously worked with the Chemical Brothers and the English National Opera.

Professional dancers from the ŻfinMalta Dance Ensemble will perform a 45-minute original  choreography by international choreographer and former ŻfinMalta Artistic Director Mavin Khoo to live music by international DJ PerQX, a Stockholm native who is at the cutting edge of the evolving global underground house music scene. At the heart of this piece is the story of humanity and the future through a specifically created 3D avatar.

Local DJs Carlo Gerada, Miss Roberta and DJ Ruby will also take to the stage to entertain the crowd with their tunes for the night, transforming St Clare’s College Grounds into a memorable dance party. The grounds are situated in a large space facing unobstructed sea views, providing a unique outdoor clubbing experience.

The party is a commissioned collaborative experience bringing together music, dance and visual interactive projections on a 40 metre stage, lit up by international designer Michael Mannion. A diverse group of guest performers will also appear throughout the night creating visual fantasies to heighten the experience of clubbing track grooves.

This event is organised by the Valletta 2018 Foundation in collaboration with ŻfinMalta, and is part of the Valletta 2018 Cultural Programme.

Entrance is free. For more information visit valletta2018.org.
