The highly anticipated event comes off on Saturday February 19, 2022 at Carnival City in the Queen’s Park Savannah, Port of Spain, Trinidad, with 28 bands. Starting time is 4:00 p.m. AST (Atlantic Standard Time).
Titled “Pan in De Sancoche,” the event promises a steelpan musical feast as bands go back-in-times for eight minutes, each vying for the coveted titles of Best Performing Band, People’s Choice and Best Flag Waver. In addition, there will be appearances by Traditional Carnival Characters and Veteran calypsonians.
Opening the playbill in the Single Pan category is Stardust of Carenage with their medley of “Drunk & Disorderly/Rose/Melda/Feeling to Party.” That culminates with the Trinidad & Tobago Police Service Steel Orchestra with their “Tribute to the People” at position number 15. In the Small Conventional Steel Orchestra grouping the Curepe-based Northolus will be the first of 12 bands to take centre stage. T&T Defence will close with “Disco Daddy/Mih Lover/Papa Chunks/Soki Soki/ All Aboard.”
