Illawarra Pipe Band

Interested in learning Pipes or Drums then get in touch with the Illawarra Pipe Band through the contact page. Tuition is free of charge and you do not need bagpipes to start only a practice chanter which is of similar appearance to a recorder and the Band keeps a few spares for sale to the public. The band practice is 7.00PM every Wednesday night at George Cross Falcon Club 25-27 Lake Ave Cringilla.

Last night (11th March) we debuted our new bass drum skin. It is amazing. Thank you to Bruce Adie (Bass drummer) for all his amazing work and to the Hamilton family for their support!

Saturday 20th December was the annual Gerringong Christmas Parade and the Illawarra Pipe Band was there as usual.

The band had a great time at the Canberra Highland Gathering – A wonderful day as always!

The 4th July found the band leading the dignitaries into the Illawarra Police Charity Ball. Picture courtesy of the Illawarra Mercury.

IBP members participated in various Dawn Services across the Illawarra and the Wollongong ANZAC day parade. After the parade the band entertained the large crowd in McCabe Park.

Here are some of the photos from the day.

We were honoured to support the Dapto/Port Kembla RSL in their Pre-ANZAC Day Parade
