Revision as of 13:06, 22 August 2014
The 35th edition of L-Għanja tal-Poplu was held on Saturday 4 December 2010 at the Grand Ballroom of the Hotel Phoenicia in Floriana.
In this festival of original songs in Maltese, the participants interpret and accompany their own songs live.
The winning songwriters can choose any artist to represent Malta in an international song festival under the aegis of the World Association of Festivals and Artists.
The show was broadcast live on One TV through a special edition of Bla Agenda. Vanni Pulé was expected to present the show but pulled out citing personal reasons, which many took to relate to the murder attempt on his son Konrad Pulé just two days earlier, on 2 December 2010. Deo Grech stood in at short notice.
