Opening Ceremony

The XTERRA Trail Run World Championship experience begins where adventure meets culture. Gather beneath the stars at the iconic Church of Ghajnsielem for a breathtaking 3D Mapping Show that will transform its historic façade into a canvas of light, motion, and storytelling — a spectacular welcome to the world of XTERRA. The evening continues with a standup dinner celebrating the very best of Maltese culinary tradition. Move freely, connect with fellow athletes and guests, and indulge in a curated selection of local flavors and tastings that capture the soul of these islands. A night to fuel the spirit before the race begins.
