Edinburgh
Military Tattoo Accommodation
Powfoulis
hotel is only 35 minutes from the Edinburgh Tattoo Venue and provides
excellent accommodation for this annual event. This year celebrates
over 50 years of Edinburgh Military Tattoo performance. Since 1950 when
the festival first began, over 200,000 people per year have attended
this splendid display of ceremonial military music peformed by over
800 participants from 30 different countries
.
The
Tattoo is staged every year in the grounds of Edinburgh Castle and is
televised to an world wide audience of 100million viewers. But television
is no substitute for the actual experience of hearing the drums, pipes
and brass instruments being played and watching this colourful performance
as dusk falls over Edinburghs mighty fortress.

The
Edinburgh Tattoo runs from 1st to 24th of August 2002 and concludes
with a spectacular world-famous firework display which also signals
the end of the Edinburgh Festival. For more information about the Tattoo,
