Perth and District Pipe Band were honoured to be asked to perform live on Breakfast TV on Friday 23rd December 2022. We were joined by members of the Aberfeldy Community and Ukrainian Families. The BBC were covering a story of Ukrainians who had fled the war and made there way to Aberfeldy where they have been welcomed by the community, they were sharing their stories especially during the Christmas period.
Our members (30) arrived at 7:00am to play in temperatures -4, it was a great opportunity for us all.

It is with deep sadness that we have to announce the death of Jim Scott on Sunday 28th June 2020. Jim was a dedicated, player, teacher and huge supporter of Perth and District Pipe Band. Jim’s funeral took place on Thursday 9th July, 11:00am, Scone Cemetery, it was fantastic to see so many Perth and District members attend in uniform from youngsters up to the not so young!! especially at such strange times that we find ourselves in, he would have been so happy to see so many. Jim will be missed by many.
Pipe Band practices will resume on Monday 24th August 2020
