Dear fellow members across the world

In order to give you plenty of notice, we have already started preparations for our Grand Chapitre which we are planning to stage from March 20-23, 2025.

The outline of the programme so far is as follows:

Thursday, March 20
Tour 1 in the afternoon (approx 3hrs)

Friday, March 21
Tour 2 with lunch (approx 5½ hrs)
Welcome dinner at the Grand Hotel Excelsior in Floriana

Saturday, March 22
Tour 3 with lunch (approx 5 hrs)
Induction Ceremony, Reception and Gala Dinner at the Phoenicia Hotel in Floriana.

Sunday, March 23
Tour 4 - a day tour of the island of Gozo.

Full details of the above events are being worked on and I hope to release the full programme in soon.

The Excelsior and the Phoenicia hotels are 5 minutes’ walk from each other and within walking distance to Valletta City Gate. They will be providing a code for a reduced accommodation rate.

Bailli Délégué Joseph Xuereb, the National Officers and our members in the Bailliage of Malta, very much look forward to welcome many of you to our island archipelago in the Mediterranean Sea for what promises to be an exceptional few days reinforcing all that we value from being members of the Chaîne.
