Notes to Editors:About Bass Festival

celebration of Black Music and Art. Every June, the UK comes alive with a
phenomenal line up of events, new commissions, gigs, exhibitions, master classes, showcases, club nights, theatre, conferences and film.
Working region-wide with some of the World’s finest promoters, venues and artists, BASS is a unique opportunity for critically acclaimed artists from the Midlands, the UK and beyond to share what they’re creating. The festival’s not just about events – there are workshops, masterclasses, artist lounges, film screenings, seminars, new productions and exhibitions – celebrating the past and investing in the future of the scene.
Every year the BASS festival follows a theme to help develop a united, innovative, challenging and progressive method to showcase urban arts.
