Yesterday morning’s oppressive heat couldn’t stop the Carnival joy, as thousands of masqueraders and mas lovers descended on the Queen’s Park Savannah in Port of Spain for the grand finale of the Greatest Show on Earth.

By the afternoon, newly crowned Chutney Soca Monarch Machel Montano seemed to be leading the way in the Road March 2025 race.

Montano’s “Pardy” dominated the music trucks and Savannah, while Bunji Garlin’s (Ian Alvarez) “Carry It” enjoyed some play in-between.
