Edinburgh Military Tattoo Sydney
The Edinburgh Military Tattoo is one of the world’s most celebrated entertainment attractions. It is a military spectacle performed by Commonwealth and international bands and display teams in the Scottish capital of Edinburgh.
The Edinburgh Military Tattoo has only toured outside of Scotland on three occasions, in 2000, 2005 and 2010. In 2005 the Edinburgh Military Tattoo toured Australia and in 2010 it returned to Australia by popular demand.
Defence was again proud to be part of the Edinburgh Military Tattoo in Australia, alongside participants from many other nations.
This year, the Edinburgh Military Tattoo celebrates 60 years and the theme for the event is valour, mateship and glory.
