Investing More In The People who Make Lucian Carnival Sing

Lucian power and groovy soca and calypso music are essential for the continuing development of our carnival product.

Our calypsonians, soca artists, and musicians create the evolving soundtrack for 𝐋𝐮𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐥 every year. Their music and performances draw audiences from around the region and internationally to our island to experience 𝐋𝐮𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐥.

The government is committed to developing 𝐋𝐮𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐥 and supporting the talented artists and musicians who work hard to create the rhythms and songs that energize our biggest annual cultural festival.

This year, the first-place prize money for each of the three national musical competitions will 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞 to $𝟒𝟎,𝟎𝟎𝟎!

  • The power soca monarch winner will be awarded $𝟒𝟎,𝟎𝟎𝟎
  • The groovy soca monarch winner will be awarded $𝟒𝟎,𝟎𝟎𝟎
  • The calypso soca monarch winner will be awarded $𝟒𝟎,𝟎𝟎𝟎

Furthermore, each of the top 10 finalists in the calypso, power and groovy soca monarch competitions is guaranteed a monetary prize!

Monetary prizes for the calypso, power and groovy soca monarch competitions total $𝟏𝟕𝟓,𝟎𝟎𝟎 𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡. That’s $𝟓𝟐𝟓,𝟎𝟎𝟎 in prize money for the three national musical competitions.
