- Presented by Isla St Clair this short clip is from a documentary filmed in August 2000, when thousands of pipers and drummers gathered in Edinburgh to raise money for Marie Curie Cancer Care and play bagpipes.
The parade (also known as Millenium Pipes) includes the Massed Pipes and Drums of the Edinburgh Tattoo, Scottish Power Pipe Band, Strathclyde Police Pipe Band as well as solo champions Roddy MacLeod and Gordon Walker.
I was a piper in the North Tyneside & District Pipe Band who played at that event what a briliant day.
I WANNA JOIN THEM!! Please Scotland, make this as your annual celebration!!

Sends chills down my spine and raises the hairs on my body! Long live the Scots!
My, how this country has changed in 20yrs
salute from the sinclairs also known as the st.clair clan proud to be scottish
okay, THIS has got to be the world record.
if ever the sound of breath upon a thousand reeds filled my heart with swelling pride, this would be the day I longed for just before yuletide
For those who want to see the entire parade the dvd - Pipers on Parade - can be obtained from rom Highland Classics
First I watched a video with 500 pipers, then one with 1,000, but 10,000 in this one---McWow!
@dempsey088 I used to cry everytime I heard the pipes! And I'm English! Some English people are of Brithonic desent, not Anglo-Saxon! My 2 boys joined a pipe band in Arklow Ireland, and now one masters the drums and the other the pipes! My proudest moment was watching them marching with the band on Arklow main street. Up the celts!
As an American, I'm also glad to say the same.
Wow .. simply amazing....
thanks to Britain form canada proving that canada still cares for Britain
That is awesome!!!! so wish I was part of that!!!
...I whish I could've been there to hear it live!
10.000, amazing!

If your volumr isn't on full, and your ears aren't bleeding, you aren't fully immersed.

I have seen around ~ 10 000 bikers in my life, and would like now to see 10 000 pipers...Where is that festival and when? WANNA GO THERE!!!
"Skirl" is a word that is only used when describing pipes. And it's battle music - they use it to get boxers going during workouts. It works. Ups the adrenaline.
I was there :D
Wow! Must have been a grand occasion. One hell of a pace to start proceedings. Wish I had been there.
Check out "Crest of Gordon"
That's just so EPIC
@robertteuma The last tune is 100 Pipers.
i hope that there will be more!!! :D
What was the last tune they played, please can anyone reply because that is my favourite tune and i never found out the name. thankyou and God Bless Scotland's talent!!
GREAT SCOTT!!!

Holy Mother of God!!!
Nothing raises hairs more. Im an English man, but pipes and drums, very close to me. just watch the end of that video.
Thats my 6/8 competition march!
great! and would be an experience of a life time to play there.i'd really love to march in such a big parade with our pipers uniform. maby i'll post a video when i'lll have time fore you to see. or just check Malta military tattoo 2007
Playing for an hour at that pace...sheesh if i were getting in practice every day for five months maybe I could do that much playing.
if there is longer video of it can you post it?
God i would have loved to see that!
I'm not Scottish but something about the Bagpipes makes my hair stand on end.
10,000? Helm's Deep would have fallen.
i'd love to see them keep the pace with the military pipers lol they pass out
first its 700 pipers, then 1000 and now 10,000 pipers on youtube how many more can there be
@Daniellimb i would love to see a millitary pipe band perform aswell as some of the civilian ones do lol but your right most civvy bands dont keep the millitary pace .. and the gurkhas haha wow
There is no wonder why Hadrian built a wall.
Piper at the gates of dawn
that is alot of pipers!!!!
I bet it's so loud
Not at all.
Both my daughters play in the same band as me, the 12 year old on pipes and the 11 year old on snare.
@MacArthurPiper
OK sigh just gone through all my 6/8 music and found out the one I wanted to know @ 0:47 is Hot Punch
Does this count as a sign of madness when you answer your own question! lmao

Anyone know the first tune, at 0:25?
