Pipers and Drummers invited to glare the international trail at The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo


Young pipers and drummers from across the world are being called upon to join Edinburgh Military Tattoo’s esteemed house band, Pipers Trail. The recruitment appeal, which offers young people the opportunity to tour with the band and perform at international occasions throughout the year. Event Fans who want to join this iconic festival can buy Edinburgh Tattoo Tickets from our most reliable and unfailing online platform.






Including the spectacular Edinburgh Tattoo comes following the completion of the band’s recent successful expeditions where they took in first-time visits to Germany, Norway, The Czech Republic and China.

Pipers Trail was developed by The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo in 2014 to establish a global network of Scottish piping and drumming performers that can play traditional and contemporary music, with a focus on excellence and performance amongst the next generation.  

After their success as a key part of the Massed Pipes and Drums in last year’s Edinburgh Tattoo, the band, led by former Director of Army Bagpipe Music Major Stevie Small, kicked off its worldwide journey in September of last year at the Dusseldorf Tattoo.

In March of this year, the band played a central role in the British Embassy of the Czech Republic’s celebration of British culture.

Performing for the British Ambassador, the Czech Minister of Defense and the Czech Speaker of the House, the Pipers Trail provided a flavor of Edinburgh in August.

Over the last six months the Pipers Trail has also visited Oslo for a performance at the Norwegian Military Tattoo in April to a record crowd of 16,300.

The popular the appeal of the pipes and drums has never been stronger, both in appreciation of the music and the considerable talent in the bagpipe, drums and traditional dancing here in Scotland and abroad.
The key reason to launch the band was to form a capability for piping, drumming, Highland dancing and fiddling to a level that can not only draw the skills of excellence for the Edinburgh Tattoo but also for global occasions that provide our young members with once-in-a-lifetime opportunities to better their skills and exposure in the piping world.

As with every art form, it’s important that we are always encouraging the next generation to come through the ranks. The opportunities which this presents are huge, from international tours and of course performing at the world-renowned Edinburgh Tattoo during August. We’re excited to meet the new recruits.

Pipers Stream followers finished off their worldwide tour on home soil taking part in the President’s March at Royal Highland Show last weekend. The President’s March is a procession of musicians taking place in the world-famous Main Ring in the grounds of Ingliston.

It remembers the regions which the agricultural show would have been hosted in former years and marks the final salute of the current President who steps down from his post in front of 2,000 spectators.

To date, the band has brought together more than 200 performers from Argentina, Uruguay, Canada, New Zealand, United States, and Australia and across the UK, to perform at Edinburgh Castle’s famous Esplanade in the last four years.
