The MWPBA was extremely disappointed to learn on Tuesday, April 25th, that all piping and drumming events have been cancelled at this year's Milwaukee Highland Games scheduled for June 3rd, 2023.
The actual Games will still go ahead.
The Milwaukee Games does hope to have us back for 2024.
Naturally, the MWPBA will automatically refund all entry fees for contest registrants.
We very much look forward to welcoming you to our other events this season!
The MWPBA is pleased to announce that registration is now open for the Lyon College Scottish Arts Summer School, June 11-16, 2023, featuring instruction from some of the world's best instructors including Willie McCallum, Jack Lee, and Jimmy Bell.
