This time of some of the wonderful people who joined us for GMR 2025! We're so grateful to everyone who joined us to make it such a special weekend at The National Piping Centre

Folk travelled from all over Scotland (including Shetland and Orkney!), England, Europe and America this year.

We're working away behind the scenes to confirm dates for 2026, as well as discussing all of your valuable feedback so we can make next year even better.

Watch this space!
