Friday, August 1 to Monday, August 4, 2008 

 

Come and enjoy a weekend full of traditional music played on the bagpipes of Ireland, England, Scotland and the border counties. Attend workshops, learn from some of the best instructors in the world, participate in seminars, and meet friends, both old and new, to exchange ideas and tunes throughout the weekend.

Our venue at the Killington Grand Hotel & Conference Center, near Rutland, VT, some 60 miles south of Burlington. A ski and convention center high in the Green Mountains, the Killington Grand provides ample indoor workshop facilities, vendors' area and concert hall, and a variety of places where small groups may gather to have informal jam sessions.

Registration: Advance Registration is now closed. Please come and register at the event!

Handicapped Accessible: The Pipers’ Gathering is handicapped accessible. Please inquire about large-print programs, sign language interpretation, and wheelchair seating at all activities.

Volunteers Needed: We need volunteers to help us run things as smoothly as possible. Volunteers are needed for transporting artists, helping at the information desk, helping with CD/T-shirt sales during the day, assistance at the evening concerts and other tasks. If you are willing to help, please check the box on the registration form.

Continued Support: Those who were at the concerts last year may remember this mantra. "What is the greatest nation in the world? DONATION!" It costs over $20,000 to bring you the Pipers' Gathering weekend each year, only about half of which is covered by registration fees. The balance is raised through grants, donations, sales of T-shirts, CDs, etc. Did I say donations? Please consider a donation to help ensure that one of your favorite weekends of the year will still be there for you in the future.
