NACC hosts 26 th Annual Top 20 Stars of Gold Awards The National Action Cultural Committee (NACC) will host the 26 th Annual “Top 20” Stars of Gold and Calypso of the Year Awards Ceremony on Sunday 12th January 2014, at the Queens Hall, St Ann’s, Port of Spain from 5.00 pm. This gala event hosted by the National Action Cultural Committee (NACC) will highlight and honour twenty of the best calypsoes by local artistes for 2013. The feature address of the ceremony will be given by the Honourable the Chief Justice of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, Mr. Justice Ivor Archie. This year’s show will be hosted by Mr. Errol Fabien. This award ceremony was introduced by the NACC in 1988 in order to develop greater respect and appreciation for the art form of calypso and those involved in the art. It has served to provide a standard of excellence to which our writers, composers and other artistes aspire.
