The journey to the crown heats up as the NWAC Calypso Semi Finals unfold today, bringing together some of the nation’s sharpest female lyricists, storytellers, and cultural voices. The show takes place at the John Cupid Carnival Village at the Queen's Park Savannah. Thirty ladies will compete for a place in the finals scheduled to take place on January 26, 2026.
Expect a full spread of artistry—social commentary, humor, melody, and that unmistakable calypso fire—as performers compete for a place in the Finals. Note that "The National Women's Action Committee" is hosting the first-ever Semi-Final of the National Calypso Queen Competition.
This edition features major updates, including a new semi-final round and rule changes allowing past winners (who haven't claimed other major titles like Calypso Monarch) to return for up to two victories. Newsday.
Stay tuned for results, standout performances, and highlights as the action unfolds. The finals are scheduled to take place at Queen's hall on January 25, 2026. Calypso season is officially in full swing.
