The  2007 Edinburgh Military Tattoo celebrates over 50 years of music and spectacle set against the world famous backdrop of Edinburgh Castle. Unlike last year, we got in early and managed to score some of the sought after tickets!

We attended this year's opening show last night - and it wasn't just pipes and drums! More than 1000 performers, including a Caribbean Calypso Orchestra, a Motor Cycle Display team, a Taipei Marching Corps and the Moscow Military Conservatoire entertained a capacity crowd with a 90-minute programme! A highlight for any visitor to the Scottish Capital!
