Winners of National Song Competition

Some of Belize’s best performing artists were decked out in the country’s national colors Friday, August 23, 2011, at the Memorial Park ‘belting out’ some of the hippest, catchiest original tunes of the decade, as they competed alongside less known artists in the 2011 National Song Competition.

Twenty-four competed in one of three featured categories, which included a Junior, Senior Patriotic and Senior Carnival song competition.
