On Saturday, 10 May, VisitMalta, in collaboration with the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, will host two exclusive evening tours at the Commonwealth War Graves Cemetery in Mtarfa. This unique event invites visitors to immerse themselves in Malta’s significant role during World War II.
The “Lest we forget” tours will be led by renowned actor and guide Jeremy Grech, who will provide a captivating historical interpretation of the events linked to the site.

Through his expert guidance, visitors will hear remarkable stories of military events connected to Malta, highlighting the courage and resilience of the heroes buried there.
These tours aim to provide an engaging and reflective experience, allowing visitors to connect with the past in a meaningful way. As you walk through the serene grounds of the cemetery, you will have the opportunity to learn about the soldiers who gave their lives in defence of Malta and the broader war effort. These stories, often lesser-known, speak to the heart of the island’s pivotal role during World War II.
