SPARK FEST 2023- FLORIANA

Dancing together

SPARK15 this year have teamed up with Dance Beyond Borders to bring the long awaited Spark Fest. The festival was launched last year which marked as the first ever successful event organized by the migrant and refugee group. The youth organization have taken it up as an annual event which is aimed at bringing communities together to reflect and cherish the moment despite the hardship endured by migratory communities. Being a refugee is one thing and being alive is something else, we all have something to be grateful of in life, and for us we don’t take it for granted, hence the festival is a chance which aims at enhancing integration and connecting communities. on this day, We were honoured to officially Launch the Refugee Week Malta (RWM) which ran the whole week with numerous activities taking place.

SPARK FEST, is an annual family day event to celebrate and connect people from all walks of life. where everyone is a family.

There were so many activities taking place throughout the day:
