The Tattoo has a proud history stretching back almost seven decades.

The official Tattoo was duly created with its first performance in 1950.
As it makes its return to the Edinburgh Castle Esplanade in 2022 with a new show titled Voices’, The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo will celebrate the power of connection with a spectacular combination of music, dance and military precision from some of the world’s leading armed forces and cultural performers.
For 2022, the Army is confirmed as the lead service. You can enjoy the legendary sound of the Massed Pipes and Drums that will echo around the Esplanade as part of Voices , supported by Tattoo pipers and drummers, and musicians from UK Military Regiments. You will be pleased to know that the Tattoo dancers and Shetland fiddlers will also join the line-up, with international acts and further details about Voices announced in the coming months.

The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo never ceases to amaze and 2025 will be no exception.
You'll get to see some of the very best pipe bands from across the globe such as the award-winning Royal Scots Dragoon Guards and the Royal Highland Fusiliers, providing heart-stopping sights and sounds for the whole family to enjoy. Marvel at the dare-devil motorcycle routines and enjoy a kaleidoscope of music, dance and breath-taking re-enactments of international battles.
The show's finale is probably one of the best, if not sombre, moments of the Edinburgh Military Tattoo as silence again takes over the arena as the 'Evening Hymn' is sung, the sounding of the 'Last Post' and the lowering of the flags. All eyes are then drawn to the Castle ramparts where the Lone Piper plays his haunting lament before a colourful display of fireworks illuminates the skies and voices unite to sing 'Auld Lang Syne'.

![coach tours to edinburgh tattoo 2023 Edinburgh Tattoo Miniguide](https://www.door2tour.com/media/74482954/edinburgh-tattoo-miniguide-2.jpg)
Mini Guide To Edinburgh Military Tattoo
What to pack Brolly, camera and a fleece or jumper as it can get cold in the evenings. Might also be worth taking a few sweets, snacks and a drink to have during the military spectacular. Also, don’t forget to double-check that you have your Edinburgh Tattoo tickets in your bag – you won’t want to be refused entry when you’re there!
What to wear The wonderful British weather can be temperamental at the best of times but hopefully when you visit it will be a glorious summers evening. It might be worth considering the worse and have a brolly on standby as well as warm clothing as the evenings can get chilly! There is a bit of an uphill climb to Edinburgh Castle where the event takes place so comfortable shoes are a must.
Before you go Might be worth checking the weather forecast on TV to see what it will be like for the evening that you see the Edinburgh Tattoo. This will help in deciding what to wear for the evening. The Tattoo has never been cancelled due to bad weather and in August it tends to be quite pleasant with a gentle breeze blowing from the west. Still check the forecast though – just in case!
Etiquette The Edinburgh Military Tattoo is one of Scotland’s biggest & best-selling spectacles in the calendar and attracts an audience of 217,000 people each year. With this in mind, do not disturb the enjoyment of others with your mobile going off at inopportune times, make sure it’s switched off or turned to silent before the show begins.
Where do you queue? There is only one queue to get into the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo and that starts at Johnston Terrace, round the hub to the Castle. It is wise to follow instructions given by the local police and security staff who will make sure you get into the Tattoo safely and on time. If travelling by coach, be prepared for a short walk uphill to the Castle Esplanade as unfortunately coaches cannot park any closer to the event.
When does it start and how long does it last? Doors open 45 minutes before the start of the performance and spectators are advised to be seated 15 minutes before it all begins. Personal belongings and baggage will be subject to a search. The event lasts for approx. 1.5 hours.
Things to be aware of It is worth remembering that Edinburgh Castle and the surrounding areas are extremely popular with tourists and can get quite congested so do allow yourself plenty of time to enable you to get through the crowds and to your seat at the Tattoo. Also try to avoid performances where TV recordings take place (12-16 Aug 2013) as the camera gear can get in the way of your enjoyment of the event.
Access to the Tattoo The location of the Edinburgh Military Tattoo may present some access difficulties for some. There is a short walk of 80 metres up a steep incline along an old cobbled path to the Esplanade. Once in the venue, you will be required to walk a further 60 metres followed by a dozen or so steps to get to the front rows of all the spectator stands. All seating at the Edinburgh Tattoo is quite steeply tiered.
Is it wheelchair friendly? There are facilities to accommodate wheelchairs at all performances of the Edinburgh Tattoo. All patrons in a wheelchair are required to be accompanied by an able-bodied person. There are disabled toilet facilities located on the Esplanade. Wheelchair spaces are located at the front of Sections 1-5 and 12-17 as well as at the top of Section 10.
Vehicle Passes You are only allowed to transport wheelchair patrons onto the Esplanade if you have a Vehicle Pass. The area must be cleared at least 60 minutes prior to the start of the performance. The Vehicle Pass does not allow you to park on or near the Esplanade. You are required to report to St Giles Street approx. 100 minutes before the performance to be guided by the Police onto the Esplanade. You will need to apply for a pass at the same time as ordering tickets for the event.
What not to miss With so much going on at the Edinburgh Military Tattoo, it can be easy to miss something vital especially if you need to nip to the loo! You definitely won’t want to miss the fireworks display at the end of the Tattoo on Saturdays (selected dates), the Lone Piper playing on the Castle Ramparts , massed pipes & drums from the Scottish regiments as well as the popular Top Secret Swiss Drum Corps.
What else can you do in Edinburgh? Whilst in Edinburgh you can hit the shops in Princes Street , enjoy street entertainment along The Royal Mile , have a drink and maybe sample some haggis in one of many quaint pubs in the city. If you’re short of time and want to see as much of Edinburgh as possible, such as Holyroodhouse, Jenners Department Store as well as the Old and New town, hop on a sightseeing bus for a whistle-stop tour of the main sights!
Address: Edinburgh Castle, Castlehill, Scotland EH1 2NG
How to get there: All coach packages will include transfers as close to the castle as possible, however, you will have to make the final approach to the Castle Esplanade on foot. If you are driving to the city, a range of on-street and covered parking facilities are available across the city.
More than 12 million people have been to the Tattoo, with the annual audience around 217,000.
We would like to wish all of our customers a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Our seasonal opening hours are as follows: We are open as normal through to the close of business on 23rd December. We will then be closed from Christmas Eve, reopening again on 29th December.

If you're a fan of history, be sure to visit the National Museum of Scotland, which houses a wide variety of artefacts and displays covering everything from ancient Egyptian mummies to modern Scottish inventions.
Why not consider a refreshments stop or an early dinner and trying some traditional Scottish cuisine at one of the city's many excellent restaurants. Then take a walk through the elegant Georgian New Town, which is known for its beautiful architecture and sophisticated atmosphere. Here, you can visit the Scottish National Gallery, which is home to an impressive collection of European art, or spend some time shopping at one of the city's many independent boutiques.
In the evening, make your way to the Edinburgh Castle for the Edinburgh Tattoo. This annual military tattoo event features performances by military bands, dancers, and other entertainers from around the world. It's a truly unique and unforgettable experience. After the Tattoo we return you to your hotel where the remainder of your evening will be spent at leisure. Perhaps chat with your fellow travellers in the hotel bar and reminisce about the wonderful and spectacular evening at the Edinburgh Military Tattoo.

The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo 1 - 23 August 2025
The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo Celebrates Triumphant 2024 Show: Journeys
The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo now turns attention to next year and its 75th Anniversary with tickets on sale now.
![coach tours to edinburgh tattoo 2023](https://remtmedia.azureedge.net/yt2cjj3e/the_royal_edinburgh_military_tattoo-2024_comes_to_an_end.jpg?rxy=0.4499419979983623,0.5818034511210518&width=930&rnd=133691505599800000)
Following an odyssey of awe-inspiring performances featuring acts from across the globe, this years’ Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo has officially come to an end.
The Edinburgh Castle’s hallowed Esplanade hosted over 800 performers, wowing packed crowds night after night, and with its increased capacity, the Tattoo hit an impressive 96% attendance cross the 26 Shows performed.
The third, and final instalment, of Creative Director Michael Brathwaite’s tenure with the Tattoo, Journeys capped off the successes of Voices and Stories . Framed by a time in which togetherness is as important as it has ever been, The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo, connected audiences, taking them on a voyage of shared histories and cultures from across the world.
In a dazzling display of lights, dance, music, colour and precision, the Show merged the traditional elements the Tattoo is known and loved for, with modern twists and fresh, creative elements. All brought to life by the wonderfully varied cast from the USA, India, Switzerland, Australia, Canada, and homegrown acts from around the UK.
With a host of offerings, packages, and experiences, Tattoo fans enjoyed the show in myriad ways, including the 10-year anniversary of our partnership with Contini – hosts of our Cannonball hospitality package. The Tattoo also proudly hosted Presenting Partner, Innis & Gunn and Official Vehicle Partner, John Clark Motor Group.
As one fantastic journey ends, another begins, with the Tattoo prepared to celebrate its 75th anniversary next year under the direction of new Creative Director, Alan Lane. The upcoming year promises to be filled with excitement and spectacular performances, with tickets on sale now.
Jason Barrett, Chief Operating Officer of The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo, said:
This year’s Tattoo had been teed up by two phenomenal performances in Voices and Stories , setting the bar exceedingly high. However, between the incredible cast, team and all those who came out to see the Show, Journeys exceeded all our expectations. This was a spectacle that will not just go down as a tremendous performance of the Tattoo, but truly one fitting of the title as one of the greatest shows on earth, and for that, we couldn’t be prouder.
But as the 74th year of the Tattoo comes to a close and we say a fond farewell to our Creative Director Michael Braithwaite, we look ahead excitedly as Alan Lane takes up the role and takes us to even more dynamic and immersive levels.
As we celebrate our 75th anniversary and a raft of exciting growth plans, it’s truly set to be a phenomenal year, and I’d urge fans to snap up tickets now to come and enjoy the magic of it all with us.
Next year, the Tattoo Show will run from 1-23 August 2025, with further updates to come across the Tattoo website and social channels.
Tickets are on sale now for the 2025 performance and can be purchased online or on the phone on 0131 225 1188.
