White Spot Pipe Band

The White Spot Pipe Band Society is a non-profit youth organization based in Surrey, British Columbia. Established in 1956, the organization is made up of a Celtic youth pipe band and highland dance troupe. Originally the Optimist Junior Pipe Band, the society adopted its current name in 1963 when White Spot Restaurants Ltd. assumed sponsorship. ​As the longest-running youth pipe band of its kind in the Pacific Northwest, the Society emphasizes commitment to community, personal growth/development, and the upkeep of Scottish heritage, with the guiding principle of "Learn to Play, Play to Learn". ​

The WSPB has offered training, motivation, and encouraged a love for music to 1000s of musicians for nearly 7 decades. Many of those youth, as adults, are still in various pipe bands today. Alongside pipers and drummers, the WPSB boasts a full-time highland dance troupe as part of its unique offerings, which distinguishes it as one of the few pipe bands in Canada to do so.
