DPPB Plays Duncan - Cowichan Festival

TheDPPB had a terrific time playing at  Duncan-Cowichan Festival on the 17th of July. One of the big attractions is The Grand Parade which featured the Delta Police Pipe Band and  Duncan’s own Cowichan Pipes and Drums.

In the afternoon, both bands performing separately in a Tattoo. The Delta Band played a selection of traditional tunes and the crowd was then treated to a display of "athleticism" on the hot pavement by the Band’s Regimental Highland Dancers. The band would like to thank PM Gord Pollock and the Cowichan Pipes and Drums for their great hospitality during the entire weekend.
