Tobago Carnival 2025 Parade of the Bands: Today is the Day!

By Published October 26, 2025

This post first appeared on Sokah2Soca, where Caribbean music meets wit, rhythm, and real talk. Island Vybe Radio spins the tunes—we decode the culture.

 
Tell your friends that today is the day! The Parade of the Bands is live from Tobago—a kaleidoscope of color, culture, and pure Carnival joy! Masqueraders are palancing (dancing and pure merriment on the streets) in costumes that kiss the sunshine and shimmer in every shade of the rainbow. The vibes? Soca music, along with some surprising Latin rhythms, creates a euphoric atmosphere. The artistry? The art is unrivaled; it embodies 'we culture,' the Caribbean's finest. 
 
We are piggybacking from Tish's site, "I Am Living My Life," for today's events. Sokah2Soca invites the global diaspora to tune in and celebrate with us via the YouTube feed from Tish of I Am Living My Life. She’s bringing the magic straight to your screen—no charge, just vibes!
 
We have the video feed at the bottom of this post for your viewing pleasure. If you’re loving the broadcast, show your appreciation and support Tish’s incredible work:

Let’s honor the creativity, the community, and the Carnival spirit. Share the link, drop a comment, and let the music move you. Tobago, we see you—and we celebrate you!
 
Let us spread awareness of the culture of the Caribbean diaspora.
We do this to promote Caribbean culture, musicians, and music producers. We are able to honor and promote the rich sounds and stories of the Caribbean thanks to your support. Together, we can ensure that this rich cultural legacy reaches a wider audience and fosters creativity and connections. While it is important to always purchase music, you should avoid sharing promotional music because doing so denies essential revenue to songwriters, producers, and artists.  You can find all of our posts online on social media platforms like FacebookYouTubeInstagramSpotify, and SoundCloud. We recommend that you explore your favorite content on FeedSpot/RSS FeedThreadsBluesky, and Twitter/X, including email subscriptions. Thank you in advance.
