The story

Soca Monarch Anguilla in The Valley/Landsome Bowl

Anguilla Summer Festival's high-energy soca competition at Landsome Bowl, split into Groovy and Power Soca Monarch titles, where the winning songs often go on to soundtrack the rest of Carnival season island-wide. with the winning songs frequently carrying forward as the season's unofficial Carnival anthems in the weeks that follow.

The Soca Monarch competition, also promoted in recent years under the name Flow Soca Rave, is Anguilla Summer Festival's high-energy answer to the more traditionally lyrical Calypso Monarch, a night built around soca's driving rhythms and crowd-moving energy rather than storytelling alone.
