BAS is the UK's only truly national carnival arts organisation. The Association's membership includes steel bands (conventional, traditional and youth orchestras), soloists and interested individuals. In its 13th year, the Annual Awards Presentation held on Saturday 3 December 2011, celebrated the achievements of members and community supporters throughout the year. This year's presentation also commemorated the Diamond Jubilee of the first performance of the Trinidad All Steel Percussion Orchestra (TASPO) in the UK and the Golden Jubilee of the Dixieland Steel Orchestra's tour of the UK and Europe. These key events laid the foundations for steel pan and wider carnival arts in the UK.
