Marco Carola’s globally recognized Music On brand will make its long-awaited Malta debut on Saturday, August 1, 2026, at the Malta Fairs & Conventions Centre. The inaugural edition brings Carola himself to the forefront, joined by a carefully curated lineup that reflects the brand’s signature underground sound and forward-thinking grooves. Tickets are available now via XCEED.
A central figure in global house and techno for decades, Carola remains one of electronic music’s most respected selectors, known for marathon sets that balance precision mixing with deep, rolling energy. For its Malta premiere, Music On assembles a cross-section of artists aligned with that ethos.
Dutch tastemaker Franky Rizardo brings his warm, groove-led house sound that blends classic influences with contemporary club weight. UK trio Mason Collective add their bass-driven house cuts and party-forward momentum, while East End Dubs contributes his unmistakable deep and rolling minimal style.
Further strengthening the bill, Joey Daniel delivers punchy, stripped-back house and techno hybrids, and Italian mainstay Ilario Alicante injects raw, driving energy rooted in techno but shaped for the dancefloor. Rising selector Ares Carter and local favorite Ant Mifsud round out the lineup.
The event will take place inside the Malta Fairs & Conventions Centre, a large-scale indoor venue set to undergo a full transformation for the occasion. Located centrally on the island and easily accessible for both local and international attendees, the space offers the scale and infrastructure required for Music On’s hallmark audiovisual production. Known for its high-spec staging and immersive sound design, the brand’s arrival in Malta signals a significant new chapter for the island’s club culture calendar.
With balmy Mediterranean nights as a backdrop and one of house and techno’s most established brands at the helm, Music On Malta is positioned as a standout moment of summer 2026.
