BGaming Makes a Return to Malta for the Second Charity Gala in Support of DAR Bjorn

(AsiaGameHub) –   BGaming is bringing back its Charity Gala on 29 May 2026, with the second iteration taking place at Malta’s The Phoenicia Hotel, as the company once again places DAR Bjorn at the heart of the event.

This fundraiser follows last year’s Gala, which raised €200,000 and helped fund DAR Bjorn’s new Respite Centre. For the 2026 event, BGaming is shifting its focus from construction support to practical care needs within that facility. Funds raised will go toward equipment including ventilators, motorized beds, air mattresses, hoist lifters, and oxygen concentrators. It will also cover the cost of four resident rooms for new admissions. BGaming has confirmed that every euro raised will go directly to DAR Bjorn, while the company will cover all production expenses separately.

A Second Gala With a Sharper Focus

DAR Bjorn was founded by Bjorn Formosa, who worked in the iGaming sector before receiving an ALS diagnosis at age 28. The organization now provides care to roughly 60 residents across two locations and also supports nearly 800 people in the local community. With demand continuing to rise, the new Respite Centre is expected to add critically needed capacity for individuals living with ALS, MS, and other serious neurological conditions.

The event will be hosted in the Bastion Pool area of The Phoenicia Hotel, and will operate as an invitation-only evening for iGaming executives, Maltese business leaders, and philanthropists. Next.io will serve as the official media partner, while Joseph Chetcuti will act as the host. The evening’s program will feature live music from Versatile, an art performance and auction from L7Matrix and Gonçalo MAR, plus a charity raffle.

BGaming has also announced several companies already supporting the 2026 edition. Flutter, Alea, and SiGMA are serving as supporting partners. MyAffiliates has joined as a Silver Partner, while Amusnet Gaming, 1spin4win, and Finteq Hub have signed on as Bronze Partners.

Marina Ostrovtsova, Chief Executive Officer of BGaming, shared:

“Last year’s Gala showed what can be accomplished when our industry unites around a shared purpose. Raising €200,000 in a single evening was an extraordinary achievement, and it provided real, tangible support to the DAR Bjorn community members who need it most.

“Returning for a second year with an even greater ambition is something we are incredibly proud of. The funds we raise this year will go toward equipment that directly improves residents’ quality of life. These donations will make the difference between comfort and hardship for people living with serious neurological conditions, and we hope both the iGaming community and the broader Maltese community will stand with us once again.”
