Political mass meetings, originally known as monster meetings are part of the Maltese political history. The first meeting probably held was in 1879 in Floriana. The first meetings were intended to resist colonial attempts over religious aspects and language, and were known as patria et religio meetings. Mass meetings became popular in the Maltese Islands in the 1970s and 1980s. A party feeling is nowadays included in these meetings.
