Toronto Pan Alive 2013 champions  Pan Fantasy Steelband has been invited to participate in the West Indian American Day Carnival Association Panorama in New York for Labour Day.

Pan Fantasy Steelband is no stranger to New York Panorama, having placed 2^nd twice in the competition in the past.

The band is extending an open invitation to all Steelbands and Pan Soloists in Toronto to rehearse and play pan with the band in New York. This would give all pan lovers an opportunity to represent Toronto in New York.

Rehearsals will take place every night from 7:30 till 10:30 at Downsview Park 20 Carl hall (Flea Market Entrance).

There is also an open invitation to the community and supporters to join the band on its bus ride which will leave Toronto on August 29 and returning on September 1. There will be a minimal cost and seats are limited.

Pan Fantasy is also seeking a sponsor for the band in the New York competition.
