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.

A private group led by marketing and events co-ordinator Kevon McKenna hopes to plan and stage a Tobago Carnival.
For many years conversations were had about Tobago having its own Carnival but nothing has yet materialised.
Speaking with Newsday last week, McKenna, 36, who is planning to host, what he called, a stakeholders’ conversation to thrash out the issue, said it’s time to change the narrative on the Carnival festivities.
“I have paid very close attention to the Carnival product offered in Tobago and these related discussions. As a result of my interest in Tobago’s Carnival product, and amidst these discussions, I was inspired to commence and complete a Masters in Arts & Carnival Studies.
