The Piping and Dancing Association of New Zealand (PDANZ) has recently updated its Judges List to be published live online, reflecting real-time updates as information is provided. This ensures that the list remains current and accessible to all.

NOTE: New dancing judges are added to the list following approval by council. This process ensures that only approved individuals are included, maintaining the integrity and standards of the judges.

Piping Judges are graded as Accredited, Approved, or Senior, with separate grades for Light Music and Piobaireachd, based on their knowledge, experience, and standing in the piping community. Prospective adjudicators must apply to the Pipers and Judges Grading Committee for grading, which is awarded based on criteria such as competitive track record and ability to assess performances.
