Pipers march through Glasgow streets for Piping Live! 2023 Big Band.
Pipers met at Mansefield Park in Partick, before heading along Dumbarton Road, onto Argyle Street and finishing on the concourse outside the iconic Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum.
The Piping Live! Big Band will return for its sixth showcase at this year’s Piping Live! festival, welcoming pipers and drummers of all ages and abilities to take part in the mass participation event.
Around 130 pipers will gather, ranging from young learners playing their chanters to seasoned professionals with years of piping experience, to walk the streets of Glasgow’s west end and perform a rousing repertoire of tunes.
Since its inception in 2016, the Piping Live! Big Band has worked in partnership with a chosen charity and this year the festival is working with Versus Arthritis. Everyone registered to be part of the Big Band makes a donation.
The spectacle is a flagship event in the Piping Live! festival programme. The world’s biggest bagpiping festival returns for its 20th edition this year, running from 12th - 20th August, in venues and on streets across the city. Visit pipinglive.co.uk.
