Melbourne Highland Games & Celtic Festival 29 March 2026
The Pipes Are Calling!
We are super excited and proud to yet again be hosts of the Victorian Pipe band Championships!
Get ready for the thunder of drums and the soaring sound of bagpipes at the 2026 Melbourne Highland Games & Celtic Festival.
Our Scottish Pipe Bands will compete head-to-head to see who rises to the top, with judges also recognising outstanding talent — including Most Improved Piper awards.
This is tradition at its finest, just as Highland Games celebrate around the world.
And the highlight?
The Massed Bands March — dozens of pipers and drummers joining forces in one powerful, unforgettable finale.
This is something you feel in your chest.
Don’t miss it. Be there!
