About Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo
The 2027 run is expected from 6 to 28 August, with performances every evening except Sundays. Seating is in covered stands facing the castle.
Tickets for the next August usually go on sale in the winter before. August is the busiest month for rooms in Edinburgh, so book a stay early.
