The Pipes of Christmas

We're back!

Thanks for taking the time to read about the Pipes of Christmas and the incredible impact it has on Scottish heritage, culture and Trad music. The concert is now in its 23rd joyous year. After going virtual in 2020, we are excited to be back offering live performances in 2021.

The first Pipes of Christmas concert was held in 1999 and since that date the event has grown considerably with a larger company and extended performance runs. The producers have frequently commissioned new music for bagpipe, clarsach and other instruments. Traditionally, part of the program is conducted in Scots Gaelic. Money raised from the concerts has helped fund the Learned Kindred’s outreach and charitable program.

 

The concert features the music of Christmas in a decidedly Celtic flair, with pipes and drums, harp and fiddle, cello and guitar and more! Best of all, it's not just a live concert - we stream concert highlights around the world on Christmas Eve and Day absolutely free-of-charge.

 

We're facing a challenge this year as we are working on very limited funds given the absence of a live concert last year. To put it simply, we need you.

 

Won't you please consider making a gift of any size to help bring our beloved concert back? As our way of saying thanks, all donors will receive first access to ticket sales this year. Given pandemic restrictions, we will be offering less tickets than in past years. Your support will provide you with exclusive first access to tickets when they go on sale.

 

All gifts made in the US are completely tax deductible. Won't you please consider helping us keep this long-going Christmas tradition going? We need this concert now more than ever. Thank you!
