Southland Soca Festival

PRESENTATIONS:

The Festival will present six module competitions:

1. Sweet Soca Flavours: This is a culinary competition to attract unique taste and presentation. Two (2) groups of five persons selected from each of the targeted counties will be invited to compete for prizes.

2. Dance De Soca Competition: This is an open dance competition that will allow groups not exceeding12 persons to register. The competition will permit each group to have a lead soca singer. The competition will permit each group to perform for a maximum of five minutes their presentations.

3. Groovy Soca Competition: This is a seed that will be nurtured and marketed as a new niche in Soca. It will be an open Soca competition that is identified by rhythmic beats between 80 – 115 rpm. The imaging of this niche suggests that Groovy Soca will be attracted to a wide range of positive human-interest themes.


4. Sassy Soca Fashions: With the advent of an increasing number of All Inclusive fetes fashions are becoming more identifiable in distinctive style. Is this a new trend? Sassy Soca Fashions will be an open competition for males and females in the Southland.

5. Super Soca Rankers: Semi-Final Stage (ISM) Competition: Thirty Semi-Finalists will compete for final placement.

6. National Schools Soca Monarch: The semi-final stage of this competition where semi-finalists are vying to wrest the crown away from the reigning Monarch.
