About

The Tasmania Police Pipe Band was formed in 199 and wears the Fletcher of Dunans tartan, in honour of the Police Commissioner at that time, Mr Phil Fletcher. It celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2019 with a celebration and performance at Princes Wharf No 1.

The Band has performed at many Tattoos and competitions both in Australia and overseas, including six visits to the world famous Edinburgh Military Tattoo, the Hong Kong Beating Retreat ceremony in 1996, the Rotorua Searchlight Tattoo in 2008, the Sydney Edinburgh Tattoo in early 2010, and in 2011 the Basel International Tattoo in Switzerland.

Local functions include Tasmania Police Academy Graduations, ANZAC Day, Christmas Parades, Government House Open Days, community tours of the State, and performances on visiting cruise ships.
