The parade is only weeks away, and before we know it, it will be the much anticipated Saturday, July 30. Here are a few details about the Scotiabank Caribbean Carnival...
The order of the bands for the Scotiabank Caribbean Carnival [Caribana] 2011 was announced this weekend. For category A, the order is as follows:
1 - MARK DELEONMAS (TORONTO MAS) IN ATLANTIS - A CARNIVAL MYTHOLOGY
2 - LOUIS SALDENAH (LOUIS SALDENAH MAS-K) CLUBSECRETS OF THE OUTER LIMITS
3 - THEA JACKSON (TRUDYNASTY )THE ROARING 20'S
4 - MARLON SINGH (CALLALOO) NATIVE AMERICAS
5 - DEXTER SEUSAHAI (TRIBAL KNIGHTS) LEGENDS
6 - JAMAAL MAGLOIRE (TORONTO REVELLERS) WELCOME TO OZ
7 - MARCUS EUSTACE (CARNIVAL NATIONZ) MYTHICAL CREATURES
8 - WHITNEY DOLDRON (MAS PLAYERS INTERNATIONAL) FAIRYTALE FANTASIES
Yes we are #6! A far stretch from last year's #1 position where we have a full clear view of the empty road ahead of us all day! But in 6th position we'll be in a good place between Tribal Knights and Nationz, and the parade route will surely be filled with spectators by that time!
Please note that there have also been a few changes to the parade route this year; here's a map: http://www.torontocaribbeancarnival.com/pdf/2011/parade_map.pdf.
In regards to the new route, the Toronto Revellers' have just noted: "This year the parade will look a bit different on the road. As usual we will be congregating in the CNE Grounds as we prepare to showcase our costumes. NEW for 2011, located midway on the parade route there will be a judging tent erected."
