The Live Music District was launched in March 2018 and has since provided local artistes with opportunities to showcase their talent at various events and locations throughout the Port of Spain district. Registered artistes have performed at venues such as D’Bocas, Smokey and Bunty, Xperience Event Centre, Radisson Hotel, Hilton Hotel, Kaiso Blues Café, and Rizzoni’s to name a few, as well as at signature events at the Botanic Gardens, Ariapita Avenue, Adam Smith Square, and Brian Lara Promenade.
