  • Thanks for posting this Glenroy. I was just wondering where this festival took place. Was this the festival that was held at the Chaguaramas Seaplane Hanger? I remember attending a sell-out steelpan festival there as a child with friends in our "home clothes" because we lived nearby in Carenage, the nearest village to the Chaguaramas American base. 

  • Is this really true?
