With some 41 days left before the official start of ‘de Caribbean’s Greatest Summer Lime!’ Mr. Liburd stated that the contestants are ready to present themselves to the general public.
A total of 16 contestants will be introduced to the general public on Friday. These contestants will be participating in three of the major pageants for Culturama. These are the Miss Culture Swimwear Pageant, Mr. Kool Pageant, and Miss Culture Queen Pageant.

Mr. Liburd pointed out that the participants for the Mr. and Miss Talented Youth Pageant will be launched at a later date. “The students are currently engaged in writing their Test of Standards examinations and we believe that the launch will be a distraction and as a result, the (Culturama) committee has decided to launch those participants at a later date,” he said.
Mr. Liburd announced that plans for Culturama 41 are at an advanced stage. He said that the planning for the festival is progressing smoothly and members of the different committees are working hard to ensure that they deliver a fun and enjoyable Culturama 41.
