Their Excellencies congratulate Joshua Regrello on Official Guinness World Record Confirmation

May 31, 2025

Their Excellencies Christine Carla Kangaloo ORTT, President of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, and Kerwyn Garcia SC, First Gentleman, extend heartfelt congratulations to Mr. Joshua Regrello on the confirmation of his Guinness World Record title.

Joshua is now officially the Guinness World Record holder for the Longest Marathon Playing Steelpan / Steel Drum. His remarkable feat was accomplished on 27 December 2024, in his hometown of San Fernando, following 31 continuous, gruelling hours of steelpan performance.

Joshua’s accomplishment is a proud moment not only for him and his family, but also for the entire nation. It is the result of over two decades of hard work, sacrifice and dedication. As a mentor at The President’s Pan Camp 2024, Joshua demonstrated and championed the very qualities—passion, discipline and commitment to one’s craft—that have brought him to this moment of well-deserved global recognition. His success stands as a shining example and as a source of inspiration for young people across Trinidad and Tobago and the world.

Their Excellencies commend Joshua for representing Trinidad and Tobago so ably on the world stage and for shining a global spotlight on our beloved national instrument. What a fitting tribute to our cultural heritage, and what a powerful way to highlight Trinidad and Tobago as both the birthplace and the epicentre of the steelpan.

Trinidad and Tobago is exceedingly proud of you, Joshua. Your success belongs to all of us, and the nation collectively basks in the glory of your achievement. We look forward to your continued success, both at home and on the international stage.

Congratulations once again.
