Photo of Keith the Piper Keith the Piper "Keith was great and led our parade with overwhelming great feedback by all councillors and local organisations Marta A" Based in Leominster, England (34 miles from Telford) 10th November 2026 Bewdley Town Council - Remembrance Sunday Parade Photo of Simon Addison Highland Piper Simon Addison Highland Piper "Hands-down, Simon is possibly the finest piper I have ever booked for a funeral service. Not only is he an excellent piper, he is also reliable, immaculately turned out and a pleasure to deal with and he is our first choice for a funeral piper in Herefordshire." Based in Hereford, England (44 miles from Telford) Mark - Funeral Photo of Andrew Brian - Highland Bagpiper Andrew Brian - Highland Bagpiper "Andy made our wedding anniversary celebration a very special day indeed. We were very moved hearing him play Highland Cathedral so beautifully as we had this at our wedding twenty two years ago. He communicated very well as soon as I made the booking and was very punctual. He looked incredibly smart and dapper and he played the bagpipe absolutely beautifully. It was just perfect. Would highly recommend and can’t wait to find another excuse to book him again." Based in Warrington, England (50 miles from Telford) Joanne - Anniversary Photo of Ed Arnold - Professional Scottish Bagpiper Ed Arnold - Professional Scottish Bagpiper "We worked with Ed together and we truly loved the experience. We could not recommend him more!"

I cannot thank you enough for adding the finishing touch to the wedding ceremony, it so complemented the Scottish roots of the family. I had so many complimentary comments said to me about lovely you were and that you looked splendid not to mention how much everybody enjoyed the pipes. May I just say again a very big thank you from all the family." Based in Selby, England (95 miles from Telford) Diane Taylor - Wedding Photo of Cameron Edgar - Pipe Major Cameron Edgar - Pipe Major "We can't thank you enough, Cameron, for helping to make our event special! The surprise element was perfect, and our guests were delighted to see you arrive and watch you play - it all added to the atmosphere! It is so moving to listen to the bagpipes, so to be in the presence of Cameron playing live at our event was a real privilege." Based in Wetherby, England (97 miles from Telford) Hannah Johnston - 10th Anniversary Gathering

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.
