Warwick Thistle Pipe Band

Warwick Thistle Pipe Band Warwick
4370 Established in 1923, Warwick Thistle Pipe Band is the oldest and most recognisable pipe band in Warwick, Queensland.

Our aims are to foster an enjoyment of the piping and drumming disciplines in a friendly, family, supportive environment, and to perform at a number of community events to provide Scottish culture to the Southern Downs region and more widely. Band rehearsals are held at the band rooms in Albert St, across from Leslie Park, each Friday from 6.30 to 8.30pm. We welcome experienced players and those who wish to learn. Tuition is provided, for a small fee, from 5:30-6:30 on Friday evenings.
