Earth Garden Festival 2019
Flying To Malta
Malta is easily accessible by many airlines in Europe, but your best bet is to book through budget airlines RyanAir or EasyJet.
When I visited Malta back in 2013 I got round-trip flights for less than 50 Euro! Now, I can’t guarantee you’ll get as lucky as I was, but if you book in advance I doubt you’d have to spend too much money.
If at all possible, I would strongly recommend staying a few extra days before / after the festival to explore the country! It really is an unique and beautiful country, and you’ll be glad you did!
Whether you can make it our there for this incredible 2019 edition, add this one to your festival bucket list! Everyone who has attended said it’s truly a remarkable experience, and will impact your life in multiple ways. Great music, beautiful venue, and a wonderful atmosphere. You really can’t ask for much more!
