Mnarja 2003

 

Weekend of celebrations kicks off [27/06/03]

It's so nice to see a town in a big celebration. That's Mnarja! Thousands of people were in Nadur on Friday and enjoyed Jum id-Dimostrazzjoni (demonstration day). The statue of St Peter and St Paul was taken round Nadur's main roads, and then, at around midnight, it was put up on a pedestal set in the main square. The pedestal is this year celebrating its 50th anniversary. The Banda Mnarja and Banda Santa Margerita of Sannat accompanied the statue in its tour around Nadur. In the meantime, Xewkija's Banda Prekursur performed a musical program in Nadur's main square. The crowd also enjoyed a display of fireworks manufactured in Nadur!
