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.

Our first engagement for 2025 was joining with the Dapto Classic Car Club at Bunnings Kembla Grange

In 2024, the band attended many functions in the community. Including, in late December, the Gerringong Christmas parade

The band also supported ANZAC Day – many of the members of the band participating in dawn services in the Illawarra and the band was part of the Wollongong Parade.

The band attended a wonderful Indian festival and the Berry Celtic festival

2024 also brought the return of the police charity ball with the Illawarra Pipe Band leading in the officials

And, for the first time, the band attended the Canberra Highland gathering.
