Preparations for Tobago Carnival 2025 are moving full steam ahead, according to the island’s Carnival Association. The association’s president said there was already higher masquerader registration compared to last year, despite the State of Emergency (SoE) currently in effect.
The Tobago Carnival Association said it has not received any reports of negative fallout from bands or masqueraders due to the SoE. Instead, interest in this year’s event has been “really encouraging”, with online registrations already surpassing last year’s figures.
“As it relates to the announcement of the SoE, so far, we don’t have any negative impact reported from the mas bands,” the association’s president Dexter Sandy told Guardian Media yesterday.
