MINISTER of Tourism, Culture and the Arts Randall Mitchell is inviting interested parties to partner with the government for a renewed International Soca Monarch competition in 2025.
He made the statement at the Trinbago Unified Calypsonians’ Organisation (TUCO) prizegiving ceremony at Queen’s Hall, St Ann’s, on April 9, when the finalists and winners of the National Freestyle, National Extempo, National Road March and
