We are just around the corner from the 4th Annual Celebration of Bagpipes (CoB4), taking place on May 16, 2026, at Bel Air High School.
CoB4 will once again transform Bel Air’s courtyard into a vibrant music festival, featuring an exciting lineup of local bands, talented performers, and the unmistakable sound of bagpipes —including our own Bel Air #BigRedPipeBand.
This year’s festival will run from 2:00 PM to 9:00 PM, with gates opening at 1:30 PM.
Attendees can enjoy live music, food trucks, vendors, and interactive activity booths throughout the day.
The event will showcase performances from Bel Air’s feeder schools and a diverse group of performers, including:
Sageland Ballet Folklorico Los Escoses Bel Air Jazz Band / Mean 17 Saffron Conspiracy Tim Thompson & Burt Ferguson Duo Bel Air Choraliers 1st Armored Division Brass Band El Paso Police Pipe Band El Paso Firefighters Pipe and Drums Bel Air High School Pipe Band Bel Air Alma Mater Choraliers Rhapsody
Proceeds from CoB4 will benefit the John Estes Scholarship Fund, which supports a deserving piper or drummer in continuing their education after graduation. This scholarship also honors the proud tradition of Bel Air’s Bagpipe Band and helps raise awareness of its unique contributions to the school, the City of El Paso, and the broader Southwest region.
