The "worlds"

The world pipe band championships is held in Glasgow in August each year. The event is fantastic as it attracts both musicians and visitors who spend their money with us.

The week before the actual event is always great fun. Bands simply set up wherever they choose around the city to practice - in this case on the steps of the Glasgow Royal Concert Hall.

Weather: cloudy with rain at time; 17 degrees c; light jacket weather; nice enough day.
