Since its beginnings in 1972, Milton Keynes Pipe Band have been entertaining audiences and promoting the playing of bagpipes and drums in the new city of Milton Keynes, which itself was only designated five years earlier in 1967.

The band was formed by Ian Dougan, Pipe Major at the time (who still plays with the band today!)

From its beginnings, the band has progressed and developed and currently plays at numerous events across Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Northants in England.

The band wears the Ancient MacPherson tartan and presently consist of 11 pipers and 3 drummers.
