First Minister Takes the Salute at The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo
On Wednesday 14 August, First Minister John Swinney attended The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo to fulfil the prestigious role as Salute Taker for the Show at Edinburgh Castle’s Esplanade.
Mr Swinney was met by Jason Barrett, Chief Executive Officer of the Tattoo, before taking his seat in the Royal Gallery to enjoy this year’s Show Journeys, which honours the seafarers who courageously traverse the oceans to connect people and cultures across continents.
The First Minister was part of the crowd to enjoy 800 talented performers from across the world, in a powerful display that embraces both tradition and modernity, through the creative light shows, drill, dance and so much more.
Journeys runs until Saturday 24 August 2024, with tickets still available to purchase online or by calling +44 (0)131 225 1188.
