Windsor Park Sports Stadium in Carnival City will transform into a vibrant cultural hub on February 1st as it hosts the highly anticipated 2026 Carnival Princess Show. The event, described by organizers as “the most dazzling spectacle of the season,” will feature three young contestants competing for the prestigious title.
The contestants include Shanell Benjamin from Woodfordhill Primary School, sponsored by Morancie and Sons; Arianna Challenger from Paix Bouche Primary School, supported by the Stephen Paboy Thomas Foundation; and dual representatives Belle Lavi Villa and Fanayé Shillingford from Bagatelle Primary School, backed by Springfield Trading.
Bianca LeBlanc, representing the Rotaract Club of Roseau, generated excitement during Thursday’s Discover Dominica Authority weekly Carnival Press Conference by promising an unforgettable experience. “Our girls are bonding, growing every day and fully in bloom,” LeBlanc announced. “Expect glitter, music, dance, and performances that will leave you breathless.”
Emphasizing the event’s cultural significance, LeBlanc declared, “Carnival City will be alive with the light of laughter. This show will be the highlight of the season, so make sure you’re part of it. Come support the three, come support culture.”
The organizers have implemented a tiered ticketing system with standing tickets priced at $25 for adults and $15 for children under 15. Seated tickets are available for $40. For international viewers and those preferring home viewing, Kairi FM will provide an online broadcast accessible for $15 USD. “Perfect if you want to sit back, relax, and really enjoy the show,” LeBlanc noted regarding the streaming option.
The spectacle is scheduled to commence at 3:00 PM, with organizers expressing gratitude to current sponsors while encouraging additional sponsorship support to enhance the event’s production quality and cultural impact.
