The special activation is part of Visit Malta's expanded partnership with Newbury Racecourse, celebrating one of the summer's biggest racing weekends.
Located within the racecourse, the interactive space has been designed to bring a little Mediterranean sunshine to Berkshire, with activities for racegoers throughout the day.
Visitors can test their luck at the Spin the Wheel, where they'll have the chance to win a range of exclusive Visit Malta merchandise and prizes, before gathering friends and family for a picture at the outdoor Visit Malta Photo Booth – the perfect way to remember a summer day at the races.
Plus, if you need a breather, the Visit Malta Chill-Out Zone offers a welcome escape from the excitement, with comfortable seating, cooling fans and complimentary refreshments inspired by the laid-back atmosphere of the Maltese Islands.
It's the ideal place to recharge for 10 minutes before heading back to enjoy the racing and live entertainment.
