HM The Queen honours Tattoo with ‘Royal’ title


Her Majesty The Queen has graciously conferred a ‘Royal’ title upon The Edinburgh Military Tattoo, which recognises its six decades of sterling service to culture and entertainment.  From January 4th the military spectacle will be named The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo.   
This is the first occasion that one of Edinburgh’s International Festival events has been awarded such a distinction. 
Tattoo Chief Executive & Producer, Major General Euan Loudon, said: “We are enormously proud to receive such a prestigious honour which, as we embark on our Diamond Jubilee Year, is a wonderful endorsement for this unique national institution”.   
The Royal Family has been closely connected with the Tattoo since it began in 1950. Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth was present that year when Sir Thomas Beecham conducted the Massed Bands during the Finale sequence. Then, in 2002, the Tattoo helped celebrate Her Majesty’s Golden Jubilee with a spectacular production, which featured performers from across the Commonwealth, while Her Royal Highness The Princess Royal is the Tattoo’s Patron. The event takes place annually throughout August, as part of the wider Edinburgh Festival.For Edinburgh Military Tattoo tickets, sports tickets, opera-ballet tickets, concert tickets, theatre tickets and exclusive event tickets in the UK and worldwide.
