Malta is being named among the top cultural destinations during the Malta Biennale, which opens to the public in just a few days’ time – on 14 March – and will run for a full 11 weeks, until 29 May 2026.

The Italian magazine The Collector has placed the Malta Biennale alongside major international biennials such as the Venice Biennale, the Sydney Biennale and the Bangkok Biennale, among others, as well as large-scale events such as those held in Abu Dhabi Art and Mexico City.

The second edition of the Malta Biennale is attracting substantial attention from the international media, with several articles already appearing in a wide range of authoritative publications, both specialised in art and culture as well as general interest magazines.

On other online fora, Malta has also been highlighted as a favourite destination during the Biennale period; Malta was even given special mention on renowned online art platform – Artsy.

As many as 40 journalists from across the globe will be attending the Malta Biennale, covering both the official opening as well as the exhibitions taking place across 11 museums and historical sites managed by Heritage Malta.

The second edition of the Malta Biennale is held under the patronage of Her Excellency the President of Malta and UNESCO.

The Malta Biennale is organised by Heritage Malta in partnership with Arts Council Malta, Visit Malta, the Valletta Cultural Agency and Public Broadcasting Services.

The Malta Biennale is also being held in full collaboration with the Ministry for Culture, Lands and Local Government, the Ministry for Foreign Affairs and Tourism, and the Ministry for Gozo and Planning.
