About the Visitmalta Calendar
The Visitmalta.com Events Calendar, hereinafter referred to as the ‘Calendar’ is a service provided by the Malta Tourism Authority, hereinafter referred to as the ‘MTA’. The Calendar provides a listing of events that are displayed on the MTA’s prime destination-marketing portal www.visitmalta.com, as well as on a number of third-party websites which make use of the same Calendar. Event organisers and promoters are encouraged to submit events for inclusion in the Calendar. Any organisers and/or promoters interested in submitting their events are to review the following information for important guidelines and terms and conditions regarding usage of the Calendar prior to submitting their events. Once the events are submitted, it is presumed that the organisers and/or promoters have understood and read such guidelines and terms and conditions and have agreed to them accordingly
