As sure as summer follows spring and hangovers follow the Christmas party, the World Pipe Band Championships will be taking place in Glasgow this year. Returning to the city for the 18th year, the event is expected to attract more bands as well, and more people enjoying the day. Last year, over 7,000 musicians took part in the competition, making up 230 bands from around the world. Last year‘s winners, Field Marshall Montgomery, will be back from Northern Ireland to defend their title for the fourth year against bands from Scotland. Canada, USA. Australia, Oman and Tokyo. To make judging easier the championships are divided into categories such as grade 1—4, drum majors, juvenile and novice juvenile grades. As well as bringing visitors and over £300,000 in revenue to the city for the weekend, it also attracts at least 30,000 spectators. On the day before the championships there will be the ‘Beat the Retreat‘ street parade from Blythswood Square, which gives a taster of what to expect on the Saturday. On the day there will be a highland dancing competition and displays, as well as a traditional craft fair, children's activities and the all important beer tent. The march past of all the bands that have competed during the day and the prize giving will take place from

5pm. (Jane Hamilton)
