Latest reviews of our Bagpipers in Aberdeen
"Sadly Eilidh was unable to come at the last minute due to illness but she managed to arrange Donal as a replacement. He was excellent and very professional for a 16 year old. It was a surprise for our teenage grandchildren who were holidaying with us from Australia and they were thrilled. Donal was charming and able to play our requests too. We were delighted with the whole experience. Thank you Roberta Keeping"

FAQs about hiring Bagpipers in Aberdeen
Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore
Can any bagpiper play my favourite song?
Professional bagpipers will often take requests, but you will need to give them plenty of notice. Please also keep in mind that bagpipers may ask for an small additional fee to prepare songs that aren't already on their song list. You can view the bagpiper's song list on their Encore profile.
How much time do bagpipers take to set up?
Your bagpiper will usually arrive about an hour or so before their performance begins to set up and get settled before they start playing. To avoid any delays, make sure the performance space is ready for the bagpiper prior to their arrival.
My venue has asked for the performer’s PLI & PAT inspection certificates. What are these?
PLI stands for Public Liability Insurance. This insurance covers damage to another person or their property (it is also known as third party insurance). As many of our bagpipers are members of the Musician's Union, they are already covered by PLI up to £10 million. PAT stands for portable appliance testing. Most of our bagpipers will already have a PAT inspection certificate for their musical equipment/PA system, which they can provide to your venue if they need it.
