No more North Stand: ‘too costly’

The North Stand is no more. After months of speculation about abolishing the North Stand at the Queen’s Park Savannah, Port of Spain, National Carnival Commission chairman ­Winston “Gypsy” Peters has confirmed there will be no more Carnival festivi­ties at the North Stand, come Carnival 2019.
