Northwest Junior Pipe Band is excited to once again be competing at the Pacific NW Highland Games!

NWJPB at the 2023 Pacific NW Highland Games

Known by many names - “the Seattle games, Seattle, the Enumclaw games or just ‘The Claw’, this event is the grand finale for our summer competition season. With performances, competitions and massed bands spanning three days, we always come home exhausted but thrilled.

Look for our band info booth where you can buy an NWJPB t-shirt. Our volunteers can answer questions about the band and how kids can get involved in our Pipe Band School learner program.
