RAF Halton Pipe Band

Heritage Open Day: Two awe-inspiring and moving performances from members of the RAF Halton pipe band Piping has a firm tradition in the Royal Air Force, going back virtually to the formation of the Service and, together with a wide range of semi-official corps of drums, brass bands and military bands, provided the basis upon which such prestigious bands as the Central Band of the RAF were formed.

Today, the backbone of the RAF's five pipe bands is provided by RAF tradesmen, their officers, and civilian volunteers and are formed on a geographical basis from RAF Stations throughout the United Kingdom. RAF Halton, just outside Aylesbury, is the oldest of these voluntary pipe bands, and is considered to be the home of piping in the Royal Air Force.
