29th trophy Mac Crimmon, 22 pipers, including 8 gaïta pipers and 14 Scottish bagpipers.

The meeting was quiet on Sunday night in the corridor of Lorient Palais des Congrès. The trophies are in place, members of the jury are wearing their finest kilt, it's almost midnight.

Then Lisardo Lombardía (1) spoke, saying in three languages: French, English and Spanish, that this competition is the soul of the festival. A beautiful multilingual speech that shows that Lorient's Festival is Inter-Celtic and opened to all cultures.

Both juries proclaim the results, saying that this promotion is excellent, regardless of the place of pipers in the rankings. And, having presented the prizes to everyone, the two best pipers played, as tradition demands, before the friendship glass offered by the whiskey brands.

The Breton musicians are placed at fourth, fifth and sixth ranks. Three New Zealanders, an American, a Canadian competed alongside three Bretons, three Irish and three Scottishs placed ninth, twelfth and fourteenth.
