📍 Meeting Point & Getting to Gozo
We will meet at Mgarr Harbour (Gozo) at 10:30.
The best and most reliable option to reach Gozo is the ferry from Cirkewwa. Even if you need to travel there first, it's usually the easiest option. If people share taxi vans, the cost is often very low.
💡 Your event ticket includes the ferry costs for the day.
Alternative option (Not included)
You can also take the Fast Ferry from Valletta at your own expense.
🚤 Fast Ferry Valletta → Gozo
Departure: 09:45
Price: €7.50 one way
You are welcome to take an earlier ferry to explore the charming harbour town of Mgarr before the trip begins. The ferry usually runs every 45 minutes.
