Celtic culture comes alive at The College of Piping & Celtic Performing Arts of Canada! Immerse yourself in a living, breathing heritage with the skirl of the bagpipes, rhythm of the drums, and flying feet of the dancers! Arouse your senses with vibrant sights and sounds, and feel inspired by the spirit of young students who embrace their heritage with an infectious enthusiasm!
The only year-round institution of its kind in North America, The College has developed a world-class reputation as an international school of excellence in Highland bagpiping, Scottish-style snare drumming, Highland dancing and Island step dancing. Since 1990, students from all over the world have come to learn traditional Celtic arts, passed down from generation to generation. With a mandate to preserve and promote the Celtic heritage of Canada’s most Celtic province, Prince Edward Island, The College ignites passion in the hearts and minds of students and visitors alike!
Showcasing the finest in Island talent, the summer-long Celtic Festival is an experience not to be missed! Join us at the “Event in the Tent”, a feature of the Summerside Highland Gathering, held on the last weekend in June. A celebration of all things Celtic, you’ll be stirred by the magnificent sound of the massed pipebands, amazed at the intricate precision of the drummers, and captivated by the young, but fiercely competitive dancers! Throughout July and August, uplift your spirits and feel the exhilaration of Highland Storm, The College’s high-energy summer production, featuring students and faculty! During the daytime, tour the facilities, browse the gift shop and engage your “inner artist” at an interactive “Behind the Scenes” mini-concert!
The College of Piping is a true Island experience - 100% Authentic, Heartfelt Celtic!
