The Carapichaima Calypso prelims and launch scheduled for January 24, 2026, have been canceled due to funding delays from the National Carnival Commission. The cancellation has left many stakeholders, performers, and Carnival community members uncertain, especially given that preparations for the event were already underway. Despite this, the organizers remain optimistic that the event can be rescheduled and potentially incorporated into Carnival Monday activities, once the necessary funding is secured. Carnival Monday is still expected to proceed as planned, pending financial support and continued coordination by the executive committee. The organizers have reiterated their commitment to preserving Carapichaima’s cultural traditions and ensuring the success of Carnival celebrations in the community. The committee has expressed appreciation for the patience and understanding of all participants and supporters, and is making ongoing efforts to secure the resources needed for a successful Carnival season.
