Since it’s inception, the band has maintained high standards of piping, drumming and teaching, bringing the traditions and love of Highland music to the community. We are a Not for Profit Band whose mission is to pass on our legacy of teaching and playing the pipes and drums. We have a well earned reputation as a teaching band and many former band members have gone on to further their careers as pipers and drummers.
2005 marked our return to competition on the Highland Games circuit, entering at the Grade 5 level. We are entering even more games in 2006. See the bookings page for the list of Games we are entering Summer 2006.
The Dundas Pipes and Drums is a community band that has been in operation since 1947. During this time, it has been featured in many competitions, parades, concerts and tattoos in Ontario.
