The United Kingdom Pipe Band Championships took place today, Saturday June 10, in Lurgan, Northern Ireland. Peoples Ford Boghall and Bathgate Caledonia Pipe Band won the Grade 1 title, which was very fitting on a day where they announced a new two year sponsorship deal with Peoples Ford and launched their new five-episode Vlog series, the “Vloghall”.
