The annual Mashramani Soca, Chutney and Calypso competitions are making a return to the physical stage after two years as the country gradually returns to some form of normalcy.
Guyana last hosted Mashramani activities in 2020 but everything came to a halt as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The competitions are slated to be held at the National Stadium Tarmac between February 18 and 20; it is the first public activity that the government will be hosting since the start of the pandemic here in March 2020.
These events were held virtually as the authorities tried to contain the spread of the dreaded virus.
This year, only a limited number of people will be allowed to attend the events and they must be fully vaccinated, according to Coordinator for Mashramani events at the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport Andrew Tyndall.
The maximum limit is 3,000 persons at each event; the capacity for the National Stadium Tarmac is 25,000.
