Trinidad and Tobago’s cultural heartbeat comes alive this Sunday, September 13, 2026, at 6:00 p.m., when Le Gran Z’Affaire unfolds at the National Academy for the Performing Arts (NAPA), Port of Spain. This marquee event of the Prime Minister’s Best Village Trophy Competition celebrates artistry, heritage, and community pride all wrapped up in this year's theme, "The Heart of Culture!"
The evening’s highlight—Miss La Reine Rive—shows nine talented finalists representing their communities through cultural expression, confidence, and creativity:
Aaliyah Hinds, Daliyah Gopaul, Sarah Manoo, Philisa Eligon, Chelsea Thomas, Waynia Mulzac, Ashleigh Ayoung, Keira Sammy, and Davanne Marshall.
Expect elegance, storytelling, and the vibrant rhythm of Trinidad and Tobago’s living culture—all under one roof at NAPA.
