Malta Fashion Week was only made possible after a year of pandemic-related hiatus with help from various entities. We have received help through a grant from the Valletta Cultural Agency and the Malta Tourism Authority who are supporting the promotion of Malta Fashion Week worldwide. We have also received support from the Mediterranean Conference Centre and other sponsors from the private sector – Jaguar Landrover (who retain their position as our Title Sponsors) and General Soft Drinks (Coca Cola), Fashion Beverages, Eva Garden, Aldo Shoes and Zen Express to go.

We also express gratitude to our suppliers; Nexos Lighting, MFCC, Best Team Audio, Sign It, Logo Express and our media partners Bay Radio and Lovin Malta.
