Welcome To Our Contract Inquiry Page

Park SlopeWelcome to the contract inquiry page of the Knights of Columbus 126 Pipes and Drums. The entire band as well as individual band members are available for hire to play at weddings, funerals, anniversaries, and other celebrations. Pipers in highland garb are traditional enhancements to weddings, where they often play during the bride's march down the aisle, while people are exiting the ceremony, outside the church after the ceremony, or at the reception.

At the passing of those of Scottish or Irish descent, pipers may play at the funeral to remind the rest of us of the importance of heritage to the person who has gone on. And pipes always provide a unique and lively entertainment at any sort of celebration, from birthdays to anniversaries to family reunions and miscellaneous events such as golf outings and welcome home parties.

To inquire whether one or more pipers are available for your event, please submit the following information:

If you are inquiring for a funeral or other event in the immediate future, please also be sure to contact Tom Donovan at bandmanager@kofc126pipesanddrums.com.
