Manchester Pipe Band

Performance

Performance

The Manchester Pipe Band’s first public performance was on October 31st 1914, in Talcottville, Connecticut. Since that time, MPB has played at events ranging from local community events in Manchester, to sharing the stage with the Hartford Symphony Orchestra and the Boston Pops!

MPB was even invited to perform at the White House in 1950, during the Truman administration. It goes without saying that we take performance seriously; our dedication to musical instruction and professional appearance ensures a highly-competent and professional presence at events of all kinds. From weddings, funerals, graduations, and parades to collaborations with other musical ensembles, concerts, and cultural presentations, MPB has worked with individuals, organizations, and schools for many years to bring an air of culture to events.

MPB gives back! Your hiring MPB for your event means that we can re-invest in our efforts to develop quality bagpiping and drumming for future generations. Funds raised through performance are directed toward our educational programming. Please contact us at booking@manchesterpb.org to discuss your event!
