​​​FUNCTIONS - ENTRANCES

​​​Corporate functions or dinner gatherings often require an MC or VIP to open the proceedings for the night. Using the piper to lead the MC or VIP into the room and to the podium grabs the attention of the assembled guest with a spark of sight and sound. When the piper exits the room the MC or VIP has an excellent platform to begin the event with the attention of the room firmly focused on them​. 

​​PARTIES & CELEBRATIONS

• Leading in the Birthday Cake
• Arriving at an agreed time to play a medley of tunes as a surprise.
• Hire the piper for the duration of the party and have a less formal multiple performance event.

• Background entertainment from a distance.

• Lead the casket to and from the hearse and chapel.
