Preparations are well underway for an exciting number of days in which thousands of people will get to know the Maltese Islands a bit more.

Considerable planning takes place prior to the festival since over 250 events will be running across forty five days commencing at the end of June till the middle of August. The festival is aimed at all members of society and supports domestic tourism in a way that complies with Saudi culture.
A substantial amount of effort has been made to promote Maltese culture and business during this event. As one of the many attractions taking place during the summer festival, the Saudi Maltese Cultural and Business week will promote some of the best Malta has to offer both to the public thanks to locations provided by the Jeddah branch of the Saudi tourism authority.
Private gatherings are also on the agenda during the Saudi Maltese Cultural and Business week at local resorts allowing government and business leaders to sample Maltese art, culture, culinary delights and entertainment throughout the cooler evenings. Business meetings are planned during the day allowing Maltese entrepreneurs the opportunity to network and discuss possible collaborations in this resourceful country amongst various Saudi business organizations based in the Western province.
