Fantastic photo of one of our pipers taking part in #VJDay75. Other pipers for the band played #bagpipes around #Leeds 🎶
For the 75th anniversary of VJ Day Piper Robert Proctor from the City of Leeds Pipe Band and Piper Corporal Robert Cunningham, Royal Marines played Battle’s O’er from the summit of Scarfell Pike at 6am today. Robert Proctor told @nickahad about this moving experience.

This is something for anyone with #bagpipes to get involved in #ThePipesAreCalling
Replying to @veday75official
Please note that we are still encouraging the solo piping element to continue from a safe and suitable location at 3pm on Friday 8 May, such as their homes. #VEDay75 veday75.org
Don't worry, the piping element is still going ahead so the day will be marked 💂‍♂️🎶💂‍♂️
Absolutely gutted over this but definitely the right decision. We WILL celebrate & remember another time. Stay safe everyone. VE Day weekend celebrations cancelled 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 #VEDay75 #LestWeForget #WW2 #1940s #COVID19 #coronavirus

We were looking forward to our first event of 2020 but it is a good call to cancel. Stay healthy #FlattenTheCurve
Given that other cities have cancelled parades, Leeds has followed suit. See you all in 2021 ☘☘🇮🇪🇮🇪💚💚
Young Caleb (seen here) playing on his mothers phone, only ordered 4 sets of #bagpipes and a #Drum!! Despatched and arriving today..hes so excited! Think he must be wanting to start his own youth band! Security settings are now on her phone!

We don't think of celebrating the accomplishments of our members on just one day a year but International Women's Day is a great way to showcase piping is not gender specific and we are proud of our diverse membership. We even have some English in the band too! #IWD2020

Our veterans are looking forward to parading for @LeedsAFD
We are excited to announce that we will be celebrating Leeds Armed Forces Day 2020 on Saturday 4 July, with a FREE event on Briggate from 11am-4pm, with activities and entertainment for all ages. Join the Lord Mayor of Leeds and show your support for the Armed Forces community.

Wouldn't miss it for anything! We'll be there rain or shine! 🌧️🌞🎶💂
The Pudsey Carnival parade paperwork has been submitted, are you taking part in this years event? #Pudsey #PudseyCarnival
We always love the sight and sound of #bagpipes in #Yorkshire and these are two great bands supporting a fantastic graduation ceremony! Check out the video facebook.com/189519221509529…
The Pipes and Drums of @GordonsSch and @4_scots_CO were fantastic in supporting our graduation. With almost no time to rehearse together their joint performance was flawless. Lovely to see Pte Derby XXXII of @MercianRegiment too - very steady on parade and a crowd pleaser!

It's a little different to when we were there last year!
A wild day at Balmoral Castle.
