“During the concert Barbadians will get full details on this year’s programme including the grand prize up for grabs, the registration process for auditions and other important information on various aspects of Baje to the World and its goal to develop well-rounded Barbadian artistes.

“Season Two was a huge success and many Bajans are looking forward to this new series. We are anxiously awaiting the selection process of the lucky Barbadians who will go forward to our preliminaries/challenges, where they will have the opportunity to showcase their talent for the entire country,” Grazette added.
