Mas Mani Carnival to launch 2026 costume collections this weekend

Mas Mani Carnival, Guyana’s fastest-growing carnival band, is set to unveil its 2026 costume collections this Sunday at the Tribe Gastronomic Lounge. The launch will showcase designs for both the Mashramani Parade in February and Guyana Carnival in May.
Founded just two years ago, Mas Mani has quickly risen from a debut band to an internationally recognized brand, having participated in Miami Carnival 2025—where it secured second place for Best Band—and preparing for its first Trinidad Carnival appearance this February.

Founder Enzo Matthews described the launch as a milestone in consolidating the band’s presence within Guyana’s carnival scene while reflecting lessons from international experiences. Attendees can expect a modern, social, and energetic atmosphere, complete with DJs, with entry free of charge.
This launch bridges the band’s rapid growth with its upcoming regional and local performances, offering masqueraders a preview of the vibrant experiences ahead.
