The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo wows crowds during tour of Scotland

The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo has taken its show to Stirling.

The Taste of the Tattoo display at the Thistles Shopping Centre follows on from a performance in Glasgow last week, with another free event planned in Dundee.

About 600 performers are taking part in the touring shows, with thousands of spectators expected to turn out.

The Tattoo has sold out all tickets for its performances in the capital for the 16th year in a row.

Brigadier David Allfrey, chief executive and producer of the Tattoo, said the events were a way to share the riches of the show.

VisitScotland chairman Mike Cantlay said the Tattoo was “one of the must-see events of the summer”.

The next touring performance will be in Dundee City Square from 12.30pm next Tuesday.
