Five Northern-region steelbands are scheduled to perform on Monday, November 9, as preliminary judging continues for Trinidad and Tobago’s National Panorama 2027 single-pan competition.
The evening’s programme begins at 5 p.m. Atlantic Standard Time. The listed order is Scrunter’s Pan Groove, Belmont Hi-Larks, Gonzales Sheikers, D’Original Woodbrook Modernaires and Woodbrook Playboyz Steel Orchestra.
Rather than gathering for one concert, the bands are scheduled to be assessed in their panyards or community performance locations. Supporters should check the latest arrangements before travelling because some published listings identify alternative venues.
Monday concludes the Northern region’s three-evening preliminary programme, which began on November 7. National single-pan preliminary judging is scheduled from November 4 to 12.
The programme is part of Panorama 2027, even though these early competition rounds take place in November 2026.
This is a preview of the scheduled performances, not a results report. Scores and qualification outcomes remain subject to the organisers’ official announcements.
