The August Moon Ball returns to the historic Verdala Castle, hosted for the second time by President Myriam Spiteri Debono.

Taking place on Saturday 9th August 2025, the event promises an evening of food, wine and entertainment.

Those present at the ball will also be contributing to the Malta Community Chest Fund, a foundation that supports individuals and entities to improve the health, quality of life and wellbeing of people in their time of need.

The event kicks off at 7pm at the President’s summer residence.

The square-shaped palace built by Grand Master Verdalle  in 1586 was originally a two-storey structure with the ground floor accessible from a dry ditch partly hewn out of the rock surrounding the building. Its plans were drawn by Maltese architect Gerolamo Cassar, inspired and informed by French castle-like palaces of the time.
