Pipe bands from around Queensland join the Mackay and District Pipe Band's celebration of Scottish music, song and dance. The free outdoor event starts at 3pm on Saturday 31 August. Pipers and drummers from six pipe bands will march across the Forgan Bridge into the Bluewater Quay where the entertainment will continue until 6 pm. Celtic folk band Hullabaloo, highland dancers and individual pipe bands will perform on the River stage throughout the event. Bring a fold up chair or picnic blanket, enjoy a coffee, ice cream or snack from the onsite food vendors while listening to the stirring sounds of the pipes and drums. The music will continue after 6pm at the North Mackay Bowls Club, 74 Malcomson Street, where performers will launch themselves into a rip roaring Ceilidh. There is no admission cost for the Ceilidh but bookings at the NMBC are recommended.
