The National Piping Centre in Glasgow is the perfect destination for anyone looking to learn more about traditional Scottish music. 🏴
It's a must-visit for all music lovers, where you can explore the culture, history, and art of Scotland’s national instrument.
You get the chance to be taught how to play them and then have a go yourself!
The most interesting part of the tour for me was learning about how piping bands from all over the globe, fly into Scotland to perform at competition level!
Thoroughly enjoyed our experience and would 100% recommend visiting. I know we'll definitely be back!
We had our wedding here at the weekend and it couldn’t have been better. The staff were so accommodating and friendly, and everything went incredibly smoothly. Emily, our main contact for organisation, was a great help and always responsive to emails. The piper was excellent, the florist made the hall look absolutely beautiful, and the food was great. It all felt very down to earth and relaxed too, which was what we wanted. A big thank you to all involved!
I will highly recommend all the people who is Interested on learning bagpipes. All around the world players are coming here to share the played experiences. People working there are all friendly and helpful. I had a very wonderful lesson there. For sure I will come back again . Thanks for all you did. Music and memory is stored !
Small but beautiful spot to visit. Cheap (more like a donation) to visit. Recommended to all piping enthusiasts.
We had our wedding here last week and can't thank the team enough for everything they did. I've never experienced such professionalism and nothing was too much bother. Even the numerous emails I was sending in the weeks and months leading up to the wedding! The staff never showed any stress and I would highly recommend getting married here. We can't wait to go back for a meal. The Piping Centre will always have a special wee place in my heart.
Friendly staff at this small but interesting museum on bagpipes.
I loved finding out more about the history of bagpipes. And we were excited to get a little private concert as one of the employees was warming up before giving a tour!
Our wedding venue... where everything was done to perfection. Building provides a great backdrop with tasteful decor which is just Scottish enough. Love the historic black & white photos on the walls, the stained glass and the way the light shines into the blue room. The food was well presented and lovely just like in the bistro. The service great. The bar stocked with Scottish craft beers and gins impressed the guests.
The organising, management of the day, accommodating the providers of cake, decor, entertainment - all done very professionally. The venue size created a great atmosphere for a party evening. Great location for guests travel and accommodation with lots of hotels in surrounding streets and travel hubs everywhere. Thanks to all who helped create a fantastic day.
I love the national piping centre. Piping Live is a great highlight event
This venue for wedding reception was such a delightful surprise. Fantastic place, it's like the tardis with something different around each corner lol! Piping centre/shop, full of history, great event spaces with private bar, lovely public restaurant & bar, great menu and accommodation. The rooms provide everything you need for a short stay and spotlessly clean. The staff were amazing, all so friendly, welcoming, helpful and efficient. I would not hesitate to recommend this place. A new found gem for us. BTW, if you have the privilege of eating breakfast, the Pipe Major's breakfast is recommended, was delicious, perfectly cooked and not to be missed.
