The much awaited 2014 Aquilla Talasasa festival will officially open today at the Kennedy stadium in Gizo.
Solomon Island Visitors Bureau (SIVB), Prime Minister Office (PMO) and Bowmans Ltd are the major sponsors of this festival.
Kawea Tiroia, festival coordinator told the Solomon Star in Gizo on Tuesday that the festival is being organized at small scale due to financial constraints.
He said although there have been some challenges, the festival is set to go after all the major sponsors were able to throw their support.
Mr Tiroia thanked all those who will be participating to ensure the festival runs as expected.
