5/5 from 219 reviews
Photo of Jenny’s Music Studio Jenny’s Music Studio "Jenny is a very talented musician that works hard to please her clients. She is very communicative and responds quickly. I highly recommend her to perform for your wedding or event." Based in Greensboro, North Carolina 30th December 2025 Charlene Bigelow - Wedding Violinist Services Photo of Bagpiper: Robert Mitchell Bagpiper: Robert Mitchell "Robert Mitchell was very sensitive to our wish for a softer sound in the church and used the border pipes. He was extremely professional, worked well with the organist and pianist, and provided a lovely Irish touch to my daughter's wedding. Afterwards, he played the bagpipes outside while everyone gathered to greet the new couple with bubbles as they hopped into their limo. In addition, he provided a transition to the reception by playing the bagpipes outside the entrance. We are thankful to Robert and heard many positive comments about him from our guests." Based in Columbia, Maryland John G. Photo of Celtic Bagpipe Team Celtic Bagpipe Team "Toni and Brock were such a highlight of our event! They’re incredibly personable, sweet, and genuinely endearing. Their bagpipe performance brought a special energy that pulled the community together and added a beautiful cultural touch. They truly made our event ten times better. They were a complete joy to work with and I can’t recommend them enough! -CB" Based in Boca Raton, Florida 29th April 2026 CB Photo of American Bagpipes American Bagpipes "Just absolutely phenomenal!

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring bagpipers is $240, with prices ranging from $190 to $380+. 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.
