Panorama Finals: Where Legends Defend and New Champions Emerge

By Published February 14, 2026

Dive deeper into Caribbean music and culture at Sokah2Soca—your go-to source for Soca, Calypso, and Carnival coverage. Originally published on Sokah2Soca, it is currently available for live streaming on Island Vybe Radio.

 
Carnival would never feel complete without Panorama. While the Single Pan, Small, and Medium Conventional bands all contribute to the excitement of the season, it's the Large Conventional Steelband Finals that truly capture the nation's attention.
 
This is the night we live for. When the sun sets and fiery musical arrangements ignite the pans, the Savannah transforms into a battlefield of brilliance. A champion will rise. Will reigning champions Will Exodus defend their crown? Will Duvonne Stewart lead the Renegades back to glory? Or will an unexpected contender shake up the order?
 
Let the bands play. Let the adrenaline surge through the players. Let the arrangers unleash their most daring ideas. Tonight, innovation meets tradition, passion meets precision, and the best of the best will claim the title.
 
A new—or repeat—champion is coming. We’re ready. Enjoy the show and watch as the top performers emerge.
 
Fans of our national instrument know that tonight is the Big Night for steelbands—and the world will be watching. Tune in via the radio feed or PPV to experience every note, every moment, every burst of steelband brilliance. We’ll have the radio broadcast linked right here in this post.
