105th Anniversary Tartan Ball

Celebrate with the Stock Yard Kilty Band! Pipes, drums, live music, Highland dancing, raffles, auctions and one big night of fun! 105 years. One unforgettable night. Join the Chicago Stock Yard Kilty Band as we celebrate 105 years of pipes, drums, and tradition at 115 Bourbon Street! Founded in 1921, the Stock Yard Kilty Band has been part of Chicago's musical and cultural landscape for more than a century. From Chicago's South Side to Highland Games across North America and Scotland, generations of pipers and drummers have carried on a tradition that is still going strong 105 years later. Now we're bringing everyone together to celebrate. The Stock Yard Kilty Band's 105th Anniversary Celebration will feature performances by the Chicago Stock Yard Kilty Band, live music from St. James Gate, Highland dancing, raffles, live and silent auctions, and plenty of time to raise a glass and celebrate with the Kilty family. Whether you've marched with us, cheered for us from the curb, traveled with the band, hired us for an event, or just love the sound of pipes and drums, you're part of the story. We hope you'll join us for a night celebrating where we've been and what's still ahead. There's Wonder Working Power in the Band!
