E-Pan to serenade in-coming tourists today: Greater Toronto Airport
3.30 pm to 4:30 pm Terminal Three


Toronto, Ontario, Canada: the flavour of Scotiabank Caribana comes back to Toronto Pearson. Come out and celebrate Scotiabank Caribana with E-pan inventor Salmon Cupid and his E-pan orchestra. They will be entertaining the airport crowds with an electronic steel pan performance. The performance will be from 3.30 to 4.30 p.m. in the international arrivals hall (meeter/greeter area) of Terminal 3.
The E-Pan looks like a steel drum but is actually a synthesiser. The inventor is Toronto’s Salmon Cupid who has begun locally building and exporting the instrument around the Caribbean, and will be leading a squad of pannists at the airport this afternoon.
Toronto Pearson is Canada’s gateway to the Caribbean, linking the Greater Toronto Area with business, family, and sunshine in over 20 Caribbean destinations. As the Scotiabank Caribana festival kicks off, Canadian and international guests alike are flying into Toronto Pearson to take part in the festivities. This year, the Scotiabank Caribana festivities start for passengers as soon as they step foot in the terminal. The media is welcome to cover this GTAA Scotiabank Caribana
