Bacchanal Committee is the name of the club that organizes [[Bacchanal]]. It was formerly called Columbia Special Events before a name change under administrative pressure to avoid confusion with university-wide official events. The club is recognized by [[ABC]], despite fulfilling a role traditionally fulfilled by [[student government|student councils]] at other schools. It is by far the largest group by allocation within ABC. Today it is a fast-growing student group whose announcement of the Spring Concert artists is eagerly anticipated.

At the beginning of [[2008]], [[Columbia Concerts]], the planner of the [[Concert on the Steps]], was officially incorporated into Bacchanal. 

Both Columbia Special Events and Columbia Concerts trace their origin back to the Ferris Booth Hall [[Board of Managers]], which in its later years served as a college-wide programming board.

== History ==
* In [[2008]], the theme of Bacchanal was BacchanALIENS, like ''Bacchanalians'', get it?
* In [[2013]], Bacchanal and [[Bwog]] got into a pissing match. To be brief, Bwog posted a rumor that it the Spring Concert headliner would be Macklemore, and Bacch. got mad. Then Bacch. said it wouldn't be. Then Bacch. released the news that it would be to [[Spec]]. And President [[Kay Sorin]] sent a mean email to a [[B&W]] [[first-year]].
*In [[2016]], there was an artist leak to [[Bwog]] and [[Spec]] from an unknown source which led to the reveal of the line-up.
