Balzan (Maltese: Ħal Balzan) is small town in the Central Region of Malta, one of the so-called three villages, together with Attard and Lija. The village originally consisted of a group of small dwellings and farms but eventually grew, becoming a parish in the 17th century. As of March 2014 the town has 3,958 inhabitants.
In Malta, many village names are identical to certain family names, as in Attard and Lija. It is believed by some, therefore, that the village inherited its name from a Sicilian family whose family name was Balzan (or Balzano). Other historians claim that 'balzan' refers to a Sicilian tax collector that could have come to Malta to collect taxes for his Sicilian feudal master. This tax collector could have resided in Balzan thus giving the village its present name.
The parish church, built in the mid-17th century, is dedicated to the Annunciation of Our Lady. The church is built in the form of a Latin cross, has one belfry and an elegant dome that can be seen from all around the village. The church is built on a Tuscan style from the outside and Doric on the inside. The statue used in the village feast celebrated on the 2nd week of July, is carved in wood by Salvatore Dimech (is-sarc) and shows our lady and Gabriel the Archangel. The parish also celebrates the feast of St. Valentine, which gave the name to the village radio station, Radio Valentine, which closed down officially in 2006.

I relive the same old dream day and night
Memories of love I knew
I couldn’t live my life, or so it seemed
My heart cried out for only you
Oh, I believe in love, girl I believe in you
Things you do, I’m falling in love again with you
A broken heart can mend if given time
I know why love is forever, love is forever with you
With every passing day I realise
That time will never heal the pain
You’re all that I’ve been thinking of
Can’t we fall in love again
Oh, I believe in love, girl I believe in you
Things you do, I’m falling in love again with you
A broken heart can mend if given time
I know why love is forever, love is forever with you
Every road will lead me back to you again, my love
Oh I cry so many tears, I couldn’t face another day without you
So tell me you care
Oh, ooh, ooh, yeah, I believe in love, cos I believe in you
Things you do, I’m falling in love again with you
I tried to let it go but it wouldn’t die
