ANSA McAL, via its Carib Beer brand, yesterday launched the 11th Annual Carib Soca Monarch Competition.

Public Relations Officer Darshnie Yussuf said the competition continues to be amazing for the company, and expressed continued commitment towards the venture.

“It shows you that we are committed, that we are here to support entertainment, to support culture and to support music,” she said.

Guyana’s reigning Carib Soca Monarch, Kwesi Ace, will be heading to Trinidad & Tobago to participate in the 2015 Soca Monarch Competition there in February.

The semi-finals for Guyana’s Soca Monarch Competition will be held on January 31, 2015 in Berbice, while the finals are set to take place on February 14th at the National Park in Georgetown.

The prize money will remain the same as last year: $1.5 million dollars first prize, $500,000 for second place, and $250,000 for third place winners. Additionally, there will be a People’s Choice Award that will involve a ‘texting segment’.

Entry forms are available at the Mashramani Secretariat in the Ministry of Culture, Youth & Sports building on Main Street, Georgetown, and at the ANSA McAL Trading Ltd Head Office at Beterverwagting, East Coast Demerara.

Coordinator of the Carib Soca Monarch Competition, Nigel Worrell, said it is important for artistes to remember that all entries must be submitted by January 5, 2015.
