A Bagpiper is a mobile instrument and so the piper can stay stationary or move around. Either way, they will not need much space to play their instrument. We advise to have an area no smaller than 3x3 metres.
What equipment and set up requirements do Bagpipers need?
As with most artists who sign up to Entertainersworldwide.com, a Bagpiper will provide all of their own equipment. You may want to enquire if an artist needs a PA to amplify their sound, in which case we would advise to use our easy to use messaging service to find out. We do ask that each performer gets a backstage area in which they can prepare for the performance ahead. If your venue does not have a backstage area, then we kindly ask that you enquire with the venue to seek an alternative space in which the performer can comfortably get ready to entertain.
