Valletta Concours

Due to an imminent Maltese Governmental general election, the traditional St. George’s Square location for the annual Valletta Concours (VC) — usually staged next to the Maltese Parliament building in the center of Valletta; Malta’s breath-taking UNESCO World Heritage capital — had to relocate to Triton Square for this year’s VC on 24 May.

Historic Valletta is the citadel city of the Knights of St John, constructed after the Great Siege of 1565 with its striking honeyed facades largely unchanged since then. One of the more recent additions though are revisions made to the 16th Century fortifications built by the Knights around Triton Square, notably renovated by globally renowned architect Renzo Piano who changed the city’s main entrance gateway where the 2026 VC was held from one to keep people out to one now welcoming them in.

Considering its overall population of just 550,000 inhabitants, the diminutive but beautiful Mediterranean island of Malta has a surprisingly large number of older and interesting cars. Every year in early June since 2017 (excluding the Covid period), many of the proud local owners and restorers of these classic vehicles gather next to the Maltese Parliament building at St. George’s Square in the historic capital city of Valletta for the annual Valletta International Concours (VIC).
