Read more

In just a few summers, Malta has become one of Europe's go-to destinations for rap and urban artist showcases. Every summer, Malta Adventures programs a season of live performances in the island's most iconic venues — Tigullio Malta in Spinola Bay and Gianpula Village in Rabat — in front of a French-speaking and international crowd from all over Europe.

The 2026 season brought together established names and rising acts: French rap, Spanish rap, Italian rap. Some artists had already been to Malta and returned, others were stepping on the island for the first time. The 2027 line-up has not been announced yet: on each artist's page, the "Priority access 2027" button lets you know first as soon as a date is confirmed.
