PEDESTRIANS in Port of Spain were treated to a preview of Carnival 2025 as masqueraders from the Ronnie and Caro mas band paraded down Frederick Street, Port of Spain, during the band’s launch on Friday. The presentation’s theme is Shall We Dance: Where Every Step Tells A Story.
The launch featured four costumes each from five of the band’s nine sections. People lined the streets to see the masqueraders, who were accompanied by a music truck, as well as water, ice-cream and drinks carts. The masqueraders paraded from the National Academy for the Performing Arts to Woodford Square, after which they went back to the mas camp.

She said the band was expecting to attract approximately 2,000 people, giving it large-band status. Read More
