Back to What's onStep into History with “1732: Tour of Teatru Manoel”
In 1732, Malta’s National Theatre—Teatru Manoel—opened its doors to the public, and remarkably, it has never closed them since. Through wars, pandemics, and centuries of change, it remains a living monument to the island’s cultural heartbeat.
Escape the chaotic streets of Valletta and travel back in time in one of Europe’s oldest working theatres. Led by local guide and actor Jeremy Grech, this one-hour, family-friendly tour brings the theatre’s 300-year history to life. Hear tales of quarrelling knights, discover where Malta’s national anthem first echoed, and explore the stories behind the stage in a relaxed, engaging experience for all ages.
