It was one of the longest National Panorama Finals of recent years, with the inclusion of 10 large and 10 medium steel bands.

The results, much like the Soca Monarch Power Soca results last night, are perhaps the most controversial of the last few years in the Large Band category.

Nevertheless, it was altogether a scintillating evening of steelpan where, no matter who took home the TT$750,000 (medium bands) and TT$2 million (large bands), the ultimate winners were the pan lovers.

Tobago also had much to celebrate, taking home the Medium Band title two years in a row!

Here is how the judges ranked the bands, with video of some of the night’s performers.
