This is a final reminder for bands interested in playing at the 2014 Highland Games at Amulet to send through an expression of interest ASAP.

Thank you to those of you who have already informed us of your interest in attending we have your information on file and will be baking a final decision by 7th February.

I’ve attached the poster that we’re circulating, please feel free to forward as you see fit.

We have also posted a highlights package from the 2013 games on you tube – here’s the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dek9F2lkMQA

Details required for the expression are outlined below:

Applications are now open for all pipe bands to attend the Highland Games at Amulet, held at Amulet Vineyard, Beechworth, Victoria.

This is a unique event, set in Victoria’s beautiful high country with sweeping views of the vineyard, hills and valleys in all directions. It’s a family focused, fun day out and we’re looking for a band who will embrace the spirit of the day. Further information about the event can be found on our website http://amuletwines.com.au/highland.html

In previous years we have had appearances from The Victorian Police Pipes and Drums, the Drones and Sticks from Napier NZ, Hawthorn Pipe Band, Greater Bendigo Pipes and Drums as well as our local pipe bands from Wangaratta and Albury/Wodonga.

Please note that the event date has changed from previous years to Saturday 3rd May 2014.

We invite bands to submit an expression of interest. Bands are required to perform at the opening of the event and two 15-20 minute performances throughout the day.

Please provide the following information:
· Name of band and contact details (phone and email)

· Number of performers in the band

· Any additional information that makes your band unique, eg. a unique playlist, maybe a member of the band with a great story, youngest/oldest member?

· List your appearance fee

Solo pipers are also invited to attend. Please provide your name, contact details and any additional information about yourself.

Please email expressions of interest to by Friday 31st January. A decision will be made by Friday 7th February.

We look forward to your expression of interest.
