There has been an in­crease in the num­ber of bands par­tic­i­pat­ing in the Down­town Car­ni­val, Port-of-Spain May­or Chin­ua Al­leyne said yes­ter­day.

“The re­sponse has been amaz­ing. We saw an in­crease in reg­is­tra­tion both yes­ter­day and to­day. I know yes­ter­day we had about 73 groups that came through to the judg­ing. To­day is well over 100,” he said.
