The Central Bank of Trinidad and Tobago celebrates the 40th anniversary of its iconic Auditorium, which first opened its doors on March 26, 1986, as the nation’s first modern performing arts theatre. Four decades since then Governor Dr. Euric Bobb officially opened the venue as “a civic contribution which would hopefully assist in enhancing the performing arts in T&T,” the Central Bank Auditorium has grown into an enduring cultural institution, hosting hundreds of local and international performances, groundbreaking cultural programmes, and landmark events that have shaped the country’s artistic landscape.

On Wednesday, March 18, 2026, the Central Bank’s National Financial Literacy Programme (NFLP), hosted seven secondary schools from across Trinidad, at the official launch of a pilot Secondary Schools Financial Literacy Club—“Club FINLIT”. The event forms part of the Bank’s activities to commemorate Global Money Week 2026.
