The Northern Meeting Piping Competitions.
The Northern Meeting Piping Competitions have emerged as the pre-eminent and most prestigious piping competition in the world. The Gold Medal for the classical piobaireachd music and the Gold Clasp for former winners, are the most sought after achievements for any piper. The honour attaching to such success attracts pipers from the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Northern Ireland, Europe and throughout the British Isles.


Innerleithen Pipe Band
Innerleithen Pipe Band is a community based organisation operating from Innerleithen in the Scottish Borders. The band performs at local festivals and gala days such as the St Ronan's Border Games Week and the Peebles Beltane Festival, as well as at private functions. The band also competes under the name Tweedvale Pipe Band (for an explanation of why, see the bands website) in pipe band competitions run under the auspices of the Royal Scottish Pipe Band Association . At the end of a very successful 2006 competition season the band was promoted to grade 3B.
 

Annan Juvenile Pipes and Drums
The band was started in 1993 by Mr F Bell as a piping school to support the Senior Band of the Annan Ex-Service Club Pipe Band. Several of the Senior Band decided to join with the other band in the town in April 2004.
Since then the juvenile numbers expanded and we now have 12 chanter players, 10 drummers and 13 pipers. These youngsters are taught by 4 voluntary instructors. The intention was to form a competing Juvenile Pipe Band and this we have now done. The juveniles have taken part in many solo competitions and have brought home their fair share of prizes.
