Pipes, drums & community on Vancouver Island

Welcome to SPPB

The Saanich Peninsula Pipe Band is a community-based group of pipers, drummers and supporters on Vancouver Island, bringing people together through Celtic music, tradition and friendship. We play at parades, Highland games, community events and private functions throughout the region, and we’re always happy to welcome new members.

It was lovely to see all the pipers and drummers in the parade. The bagpipes are such an important part of the event.
