Question 1

What size should I order?

Accepted Answer

Use the sizing guide before choosing your bra, waist and bottom sizes. If you are between sizes or unsure, contact Showtime on WhatsApp before placing your order so the team can help you choose. Final sizes are due January 1, 2027.

Question 2

How do I pick up my costume?

Accepted Answer

Costume distribution happens in the weeks leading up to Carnival at scheduled pickup dates at Mas Camp, 51 French Street, Port of Spain. Bring your QR boarding pass and a valid government-issued ID. If you are flying in and cannot make the standard window, contact the team to arrange an alternative.

Question 3

I’m traveling alone — will I know anyone?

Accepted Answer

Many masqueraders play mas solo. You join a section from the moment you register, and the band’s WhatsApp groups connect you with fellow masqueraders before you land.

Question 4

What should I bring on the road — and what should I leave at home?

Accepted Answer

Bring broken-in comfortable footwear, a small waist bag or crossbody for phone, ID, cash and sunscreen, and a portable phone charger. Leave at home anything you are not prepared to dance in, sweat in or lose.

Question 5

I’m registering from outside Trinidad — do I have to pay my deposit in person?

Accepted Answer

No. Overseas customers can pay the TTD 800 deposit through Partial.ly or pay in full online by debit or credit card. The deposit must be received within 48 hours of placing your order. Final balances and sizes are due January 1, 2027. All payments are final and non-refundable.
