Wing-O-Rama, competing in Couva Carnival for the first time, beat out more seasoned competitors to capture the coveted Band of the Year title at the Parade of the Bands at the Couva Car Park on Carnival Tuesday, March 4.

Led by Mano Bridgelal who also designed the mas, Wing-O-Rama’s presentation captivated the massive crowd at the Couva Carnival centre with its creative and dazzling portrayal of Wings of Nature.

The band’s King, which encountered mobility problems with overhead utility lines at the Monday Nite Mas parade, was able to move freely as T&TEC rectified the situation. Veteran masquerader Mahindra Hardeosingh danced his 28-feet-wide costume with ease delighting spectators with its creativity.
