The Prime Minister just made an announcement that Trinidad and Tobago Carnival 2021 is not going to happen. I interpret this to be in reference to the current model.

Entrepreneurs, creatives and other Carnival stakeholders, if you weren’t doing so before: it’s time to PIVOT. ⚡️
Didn’t I say 2 weeks ago that this conversation needs to happen soon? Well, soon has arrived.
Y’all lost the plot when you thought that Carnival was simply a backline option with a Las Lap + a few all-inclusive fetes.
If you have a DEEPER spiritual reverence about Carnival and its cultural makeup, you will understand that isn’t a devastating loss. It’s a BIG opportunity.
It’s time to work, y’all. Everything that does not embody the authentic Carnival experience at its centre will fall away as it should.
All good things comes to those who stay true.

Everything else is noise.
