The cancellation of Carnival 2021 by the Government has accelerated talks about Tobago hosting its own Carnival celebrations.
For many years there have been mere conversations about the topic, but nothing has materialised.
The discussions continued on Thursday, as marketing and events co-ordinator Kevon McKenna, who was hired by the Tobago Festivals Commission Ltd (TFCL) as a consultant, hosted a second virtual stakeholders’ conversation to discuss the issue.
Although the world is still going through the covid19 pandemic, stakeholders are hopeful a proposal can be made for 2022.
