MALTA NEW YEARS EVE NATIONAL CELEBRATION - TRULY A SUCCESSFUL EVENT!!
Christmas time was really a busy season for Leon Promotions!!
But we are really satisfied that we made it happen to the full satisfaction of all our clients!!
[img]
We must admit that amongst all events, the highlight was Malta's National New Years Eve Celebration at St. Anne Street Floriana. Thanks to the Floriana Local Council, our dream came true after so many years!!!
Yes - now we can say that Malta is on the map of the world on New Years Eve. Why wait for another millenium to have a New Years Eve celebration party outdoor in the streets.
Malta's main street leading to Valletta was full with thousands of people who gathered together to give a warm welcome to 2010!!
It was a great party which ended with a bang!! It was great to be near the War Memorial and enjoy fireworks from all around - from near the Central Bank Area from the Grand Harbour ( fireworks for the Valletta Waterfront) and from the Sliema side ( fireworks for the Grand Hotel Excelsior)...... It was a hard busy season but yes Leon Promotions confirmed once again that they are one of Malta's leading event organisers especially through the last seconds of 2009!!
We would like to point out that we feel that it was really unfair the way a section of the local media reported the Floriana New Years Eve event. It was said that the party didn't manage to draw the expected crowds.... This is totally not true...
Take a look at these links... and you justify if what was said was right or not:
Video 1
Video 2
Ask those who were there and you will have the answer?
Its a shame for part of the local media that they reported with photos and video clips what happened in other countries and they didn't dare to show how their country welcomed the New Year.
We sincerely hope that there was no hidden agenda in all this!!
After all, what matters is that all those thousands which attended have already confirmed that this is the New Years Eve they want to have in their country... So the ball is already rolling for the coming New Years Eve!!

When you plan to organise an event – starting
from just a family party and up to a large scale
event its always a bit hectic. You have to
start well before to contract performers and
service providers and you have to make sure that
you don’t miss something, etc, etc. Malta is
so fortunate that it has quite a lot of
performers and service providers for any event
but there are only a few who can just handle all
the necessary co-ordination required from
planning till dismantling.
Among the most leading events organising
companies in Malta, one can for sure name Leon
Promotions. So if you’re planning to organise
a social activity or any kind of event, all you
need to do is just reach a contact with Leon
Promotions and you will definitely have what
best suits your particular event. You just
dream about an event and we will just do all the
rest!!! Yes, its just that simple… a simple
e-mail or telephone call will make your life
much less hectic!!
But that’s not all. Its true that maybe some
say that we are just sub contracting performers
and service providers and so its much better if
you go direct for the particular service. We
can 100% guarantee that our package prices are
much more cheaper, than if you had to do all
this on your own. Just give it a try and you
will find out that this is true.
More than that, we can help you be innovative
and create new events and even promote new
attractions which you have never dreamt to have
before. Our experience in the field, is the
best guarantee we can give you……

“The
Malta International Fireworks Festival”, “The
National Mechanised Ground Fireworks Festival”, “The
Birgu by Candlelight”, “Climate Change Malta” are
just a few among so much events we have been
handling from their first edition…..

And we feel proud that we have been asked to give a
hand in national and large scale events such as the
Millenium celebrations, the Malta-EU accession
celebrations, the Euro Changeover celebrations,
CHOGM Malta, the FECC Convention, the Powerboats P1
races, the Olympic Games for small nations,
inauguration of national projects such as the Mater
Dei Hospital, etc….. and these are only a few to
mention.

Our clients are the best point of reference you can
have… so we urge you to browse along this website
and even forward this link to your friends and
colleagues. We are sure that someday or another,
we will hear from you as you will soon realise that
its really worthed!!
