All 16 large bands advance to Panorama semis as event dedicated to Patrick Arnold

Pan Trinbago is dedicating the 2024 Panorama Medium and Large Bands semi-finals to the late former Pan Trinbago President Patrick Arnold.

Mr Arnold, who died in May 2023 at the age of 84, was head of the organization from 1996 to 2009.

According to Pan Trinbago, instead of placing 14 large bands into the semis, it has decided to include all 16 large bands for 2024 only, as a tribute to Mr Arnold.

It explains that for eight years, he developed a habit of carrying all the large bands into the semi-finals.

This year’s semis will take place on January 28th at 1pm at the Queen’s Park Savannah.
