On Saturday, 14th December, 2024, King Carnival is set to ignite the carnival spirit in Trinidad. We kick off the celebration with steelpan music. No, this is not the time for small, medium, or large bands, but rather for what is known as a single-pan competition. Yes, there is a "band of players," but they each play on a single instrument. As we look forward to the event, we cordially invite you to join us as 25 exceptional steel orchestras battle for the title of Single Pan Champions 2025! Despite the odd timing of this competition in December 2024, we will crown the winners as the champions of 2025!
Following an extraordinary 2024 filled with milestones for the Steelpan, we invite you to experience Panorama 2025—a night pulsing with rhythm, artistry, and the spirit of Trinidad and Tobago’s iconic national instrument. Twenty-five bands will compete to win the coveted title.
Don't miss out on this spectacular event that celebrates the vibrant culture and incredible talent of our steelpan musicians. This day will serve as a buildup for what comes next: the small, medium, and large conventional bands competition.
We are ready to keep the Pan spirit alive, and we trust you are, too. The Sokah2Soca Team encourages everyone to come together for an unforgettable evening of music and celebration. Let the enchanting sounds of the steelpan transport you to a world of joy and unity as we honor the passion and dedication of our performers.
Feel free to share your excitement and predictions for the upcoming finals in the comments! Your enthusiasm will only add to the vibrant atmosphere the Steelpan fraternity wants to create.
