Panorama
Steel Pan and Steel Orchestras are a big deal in Antigua with several pan yards around the island. These Pan players come into groups of about fifty (some more, some less) and perform at Antigua's official Steel Pan competition, Panorama.
Some of the Steel Bands that perform are:
- Gemonites
- Harmonites
- Ebonites
- Hell's Gate
- Mahico
- Le Chateau D'or
- Halcyon
- Roots
- Supa Stars
- West Side Symphony

Famous quotes containing the word panorama:
“It was a comfort in those succeeding days to sit up and contemplate the majestic panorama of mountains and valleys spread out below us and eat ham and hard boiled eggs while our spiritual natures reveled alternately in rainbows, thunderstorms, and peerless sunsets. Nothing helps scenery like ham and eggs.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
