AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Carnival Industry Skills: Antigua’s Department of Culture will run a Soca and Calypso adjudicators’ training workshop on June 20 (Harrison Centre, AB-CAAS), focusing on scoring methods, rubric use, performance analysis and bias awareness for current and prospective judges. Sailing & Sports Tourism: The Antigua Racing Cup is set for March 17–21, 2027, with dual scoring (CSA and IRC) and a performance-focused regatta format aimed at attracting international teams. Regional Tourism Business: CHTA named Barbados host for Caribbean Travel Marketplace 2027 (May 18–21), after Antigua’s successful 2026 event—an important B2B platform linking buyers and Caribbean suppliers. Visa Shock for Tourism Leadership: Newly elected CHTA president Gregor Nassief’s US visa renewal was denied, raising concerns about how tighter US entry rules could disrupt Caribbean tourism representation. CHOGM Delivery Watch: Government funding is moving ahead for the Potters Playing Field redevelopment, including expansion of the swimming pool, with completion targeted ahead of CHOGM 2026. Local Economy Pressure: PM Browne revised Antigua and Barbuda’s 2026 growth outlook down to about 4%, citing higher global fuel and food costs. Trade & Services Training: Antigua and Barbuda will host an OECS specialised services sector training programme from June 29 to July 2, supporting skills for services competitiveness and policy work.
