The Trinidad and Tobago Police Service (TTPS) has launched phase two of Operation Festive Shield, under the theme: “Operation Secure De VIBES – Visibility, Intelligence, Border and Band Security, Enforcement, Safety for All.”

In a media release on January 23, police said the initiative aligns with the national carnival theme for 2026: We Like It So. The TTPS said it is committed to keeping Carnival safe, secure, and enjoyable for everyone.

It said the public can expect: high visibility of officers across all routes and zones; intelligence-led policing to prevent crime; border and band security to protect participants; enforcement of the law with zero tolerance for violence; and safety for all – public, performers, and visitors.
