As a spectacular conclusion to any Scottish gala dinner or corporate event, we can organise a pipe band to beat the retreat.  Typically, the spectacle includes a 14 to 16 piece pipe band in full regimental uniform, marching, making formations and can also include a drum fanfare.  We can scale the band size to meet your venue requirements.

If you have a VIP guest, we can, on request, arrange a salute to the chieftain. This is where a member of the pipe band requests their permission to leave. Fireworks and Highland dancers can also be included in pipe band shows.

Throughout history, pipe bands have helped rouse and lead warriors for battle. Today, we can rouse your guests and entertain them with a spectacular end to their event, concluding with piping them to their awaiting coaches and homeward.

A Pipe Band for all Occasions

Hiring a pipe band for events such as conferences, gala evenings, corporate functions, and weddings brings a unique and memorable touch. A pipe band offers a powerful presence and distinctive sound that can elevate any occasion.

The music of a pipe band adds a sense of grandeur and tradition. For conferences, it provides an inspiring start or an impactful closing. In corporate settings, it energizes the audience and creates an engaging atmosphere. For gala events, the visual and auditory appeal of the band adds sophistication and cultural richness, making the event feel special and distinguished.

At weddings and important celebrations, a pipe band adds a personal and emotional touch. The bagpipes’ powerful sound is often associated with significant life events, making moments like the processional or the guest of honour’s entrance more memorable.

The versatility of a pipe band allows them to adapt their performance to suit the tone and theme of the event. Whether it’s a formal occasion or a relaxed celebration, the band can tailor their repertoire to enhance the overall experience.

We also have a Rock pipe band, Pipedown. PipeDown are a high-energy talented group of musicians. Led by Bagpipes they excel at entertaining groups with dazzling fast reels with the inclusion of dance, rock and pop soundtracks. They skillfully gel classic rock and dance hits alongside exhilarating Scottish tunes. The bagpipes are joined by an electric guitar that can rip and rock out. It has been known that they do a musical battle as well. Be warned!

In summary, hiring a pipe band for conferences, gala events, corporate functions, or weddings brings musical excellence, cultural richness, and emotional impact. Their presence transforms an event into a memorable and extraordinary occasion, leaving a lasting impression on all attendees.
