Members typically wear distinctive uniforms, which may include kilts and other traditional attire, reflecting their cultural heritage. Pipe bands are commonly associated with Scottish and Irish culture, but they can be found worldwide. They participate in parades, competitions, and community events, showcasing their skills and fostering a sense of camaraderie among members. The combination of the unique sound of the bagpipes and the rhythm of the drums creates a powerful musical experience.
