Based in Westport, Connaught, Ireland (329 miles from Plymouth) 10th May 2026 Rachel scanlon - Wedding Photo of Stevie Bagpipes Stevie Bagpipes "Stevie is a great guy and a wonderful piper. He was a fantastic addition to our wedding day and we are so glad that he was able to be with us. With clear communication and quick responses from first contact through to the day itself he was always very friendly and accommodating. Nothing was too much trouble for him and his range of music was fab. The added bonus of the pipers toast after being piped into our wedding breakfast was very special and a lovely touch. We would absolutely recommend Stevie to anyone even considering having bagpipes at their event!" Based in Bedlington, England (346 miles from Plymouth) Rory Maclagan - Wedding April 2023

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring bagpipers is £180, with prices ranging from £130 to £320+. Rates vary depending on the length of the performance, travel distance and whether the booking includes ceremonial piping, background music or both. Many pipers also offer options such as traditional Highland dress or specific tune requests.

Many clients book bagpipers for weddings, Burns Night celebrations, funerals, corporate events, graduation ceremonies and sporting occasions. A piper can provide a dramatic entrance for the bride, pipe in the haggis at a Burns supper or add a sense of ceremony to formal events.

Most bagpipers perform for 30 minutes to one hour, though this varies depending on the event. Bagpiping is physically demanding, so sets are typically shorter than those of other musicians. Many pipers can perform at several points during an event rather than in one continuous set.

Most bagpipers are happy to perform both indoors and outdoors. However, bagpipes are naturally very loud, so indoor performances may be more suitable in larger spaces such as halls, marquees or churches. It is worth discussing the venue with the piper to ensure the volume is appropriate for the setting.

Yes, either add suppliers to your favourites and contact them all at once, or use the find a supplier wizard.

Booking as early as possible increases the chance of securing your supplier's availability on your event date, particularly during busy times of the year. However, many suppliers also accept last minute bookings, and we have successfully arranged bookings for clients with just a few hours' notice.

Contact the supplier you are interested in booking by clicking "Contact Now" on their listing. Discuss your requirements using our messaging system or join a video meeting (like a Zoom-call) to speak face-to-face. Once you are ready to confirm your booking, simply ask the supplier to send you a contract, which you can agree to online, or request amendments. Once you agree to the contract you will be asked to pay a 10% booking fee to confirm the booking, with the balance payable directly to the supplier by the due date you've agreed on.
