On Sunday the 1st of June, we are competing in our first competition as this band. Lots of our players have competed before, of course but we are very excited to be competing for the first time together! We meet twice a week to practice, and are really enjoying working towards this! Here are some of our pipers at a practice in Blackness.
We will be found at Markinch Highland Games on the 1st of June, which will be a great day out for all of the family, and are playing at 10.34 at Dixon Park, Markinch. Come along and cheer us on!
On Saturday 10th of May we hosted a ceilidh at the Kirkliston Bowling club, we had a great night, with folk music from Drouthy neebors, and we joined in with them also. We played a few tunes of our own too! We also had one of our famous raffles, featuring prizes such as a boat trip on the Maid of the Forth, a voucher for the gorgeous Thirty knots, and a round of golf!
Keep an eye out for future fundraising events with us, they are always such fun!
We were recently asked to play on the Royal Yacht Britannia, it is always a pleasure to do so!

In August we are always delighted to be part of our local gala, the Ferry fair. We lead our gala queen and her court to be crowned, along with various local organisations, entertaining the crowds on the way. It’s such a great fun family day out, organised by such hard working people of Queensferry
