Sandra Sandoval Prepares Her Steps for Carnival and Ignites the Party Atmosphere
“Problema Resuelto”, performed by Samy and Sandra Sandoval along with Principal, is shaping up to be one of the most played songs on stages, at water festivals and on streets throughout the country.
The spirit of Carnival is already beginning to be felt strongly in Panama, and one of the figures who has contributed the most to igniting the collective excitement is Sandra Sandoval. The traditional music singer recently shared a video on her social media that quickly went viral, showing that the countdown to the country’s biggest celebration is already underway. In the clip, which has garnered over 6,000 likes, Sandra is seen dancing barefoot, dressed all in white, and showing off her energetic moves. The video, filmed in a relaxed yet rhythmic setting, serves as the perfect prelude to the upcoming Carnival festivities.
The artist herself accompanied the post with a message reflecting her enthusiasm: “I’m here learning the steps to the Carnival song #ellatieneunsugar with @itsjalejandro.” The post not only sparked thousands of reactions, but also reaffirmed Sandra Sandoval’s role as one of the most influential figures in Panamanian folklore and popular music, especially when it comes to celebrating traditions that unite the country. This festive atmosphere coincides with preparations for the 2026 Carnival Festival, a Caribbean-style event taking place from Friday to Tuesday of Carnival, with a continuous program of activities throughout the four days.
The initiative aims to establish itself as a new tourist attraction for Panama City, offering a vibrant urban experience for those who choose to celebrate Carnival in the capital. The Cinta Costera is already beginning its transformation to welcome thousands of Panamanians and visitors. The installation of the main stage marks the start of an ambitious project that aims to position the capital’s carnival as a strong alternative to traditional celebrations in the interior of the country, combining music, culture, and entertainment on a grand scale. Music will be one of the cornerstones of Carnival 2026, and in that context, one song promises to become the anthem of the season.
“Problema Resuelto” (Problem Solved) , performed by Samy and Sandra Sandoval along with Principal , is shaping up to be one of the most played songs on stages, at water fights, and in the streets throughout the country. Samy and Sandra Sandoval, considered the leading exponents of traditional Panamanian music, surprised audiences by joining forces with Principal, one of the most influential artists in the national dancehall and reggae scene, on the official remix of the track. The collaboration directly targets the country’s party scene and stands out for its powerful blend of genres. This release goes beyond a seasonal song. It’s a carefully crafted fusion of accordion and traditional cumbia, infused with Principal’s signature urban energy.
The result is an explosive track that connects generations and styles without losing the cultural essence that defines each of the artists involved. The excitement among fans isn’t limited to just Carnival. Just a few days ago, Sandra and Samy Sandoval shared the stage at the ISAPALOOZA event, where fitness trainer Isa Quirós was also present. The artists’ participation was celebrated as a special moment that transcended music. Isa Quirós expressed it this way on her social media: “What an honor and what a blast to have these two masters who mean so much to the Panamanian people.
ISAPALOOZA is much more than a fitness event. It’s pure enjoyment, its history, its community. ” With a constant presence at events, innovative collaborations, and an authentic connection with the public, Sandra Sandoval is once again solidifying her position as one of Panama’s greatest ambassadors of joy. Her energy, both online and on stage, confirms that Carnival 2026 has already begun and promises to be unforgettable.
