The Edinburgh Military Tattoo celebrates over 50 years of music and spectacle set against the world famous backdrop.

Watch world renowned regiments such as The Black Watch, The Royal Scots Dragoon Guards, and The Royal Highland Fusiliers perform an extravaganza at the strangely secretive, menacing but still homely and human Edinburgh Castle.

The first Edinburgh Tattoo took place in 1950 and there were eight items in the programme. Today, more than 11 million people have attended the Tattoo, with the annual audience being around 217,000. This performance is a truly amazing spectacle and is at the heart of Scottish tradition.
