If you ever hear the bagpipes on the battlefield, you'd better hope you're stood next to them and not infront of them.

The Edinburgh Tattoo is one of my favorite memories of my trip to Scotland in 2019. Seemed like it was all over in 5 minutes, the time flew by! Absolutely amazing! Helped inspire me to join a band and I have not looked back since!

Was there in 2012. The way the massed pipes and drums appeared half way up the esplanade out of the dark, playing Highland Cathedral was spine tingling.

It's great that our small country has a huge national identity recognised worldwide.

The pipes played at my Mother and brothers funeral..they make me cry..There so beautiful..

I was there when this was filmed. Absolutely superb night out. If you get the chance to go to the Tattoo then go! Not just Scottish culture but it embraces all cultures and is way better live than the edited TV version. In the words of Billy Connelly, it well repays a visit!

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ I’ve always loved the pipes and drums, since seeing it on TV as a child, of all things a advertisement for Dewars! After that I recall seeing several movies with Scots in them. I put going to Scotland on my bucket list even before I knew what a bucket list was and we went in 2019, just before COVID arrived. Thank God that we were able to go. Edinburgh and the Castle were amazing. Next on the list is to experience the Tattoo. I already own 8 kilts and love wearing them on hikes and such. If I could I’d retire to the highlands in Scotland.

Outstanding! This is the most amazing footage of the massed Pipes & Drums & the Edinburgh Tattoo that I have ever seen! It felt like we were right there amongst the Pipes & Drums! Whoever filmed & recorded this spectacular Tattoo did a phenomenal job! Also, the Pipers & Drummers were outstanding, along with the magnificent Edinburgh Castle in the background!

God speed and may yet rest in peace….Lest we forget ..

I have to admit this brings a lump to my throat and tears to my eyes, the pipes and drums are a wonderful sound and the sight of such impeccable military precision incredible

God bless Scotland...this is warrior music.

Us kids got together for my parents wedding anniversary we sent them to the UK! My Dad was thrilled! My Dad had done a lot of work in London during the Second World War. They fell completely in love with Scotland! My Dad was a very strong man as he was a blacksmith. He was stunned by the fact that he could hardly lift one of their swords. 🗡️

I was born an Australian but my relations come from the UK AND SINCE I WAS A KID IVE LOVED THE MASS PIPES AND DRUMS JUST LOVE THEM.....

I am in Outback Australia, and I am decended from the Stuart Clan. Bagpipes get me everytime. Fucking tear up.

Do you know that the most of the time it's a Scottish regiment that goes into the battle first and the Scottish soldiers are the best soldiers ever in the British army, but that's my opinion anyway a hope someone will agree with me on this one please reply if you do thanks

Exceptional sounds of music.

What a wonderful music! So much respect to them and Scotland!!

Nothing can beat the haunting swirl of the bagpipes to arouse emotions. After all the were the prelude to battle in olden times.

That sound! It resonates all the way to your soul. It was a battle cry, it was a shout of victory! Intimidated & struck fear in the hearts of enemies, & brought hope & course to those being oppressed.

We all like to hear a pipe band as they keep to tradition...one of kind

I grew up in Edinburgh and my Mum, Dad and a few friends were going to the Tattoo. I was probably about 7 or 8. Gran was to look after us. I was just getting in to bed and my Dad comes in, "Do you want to go to the Tattoo? Put on as many warm clothes as you can". Being young I put on two pairs of trousers about three jumpers and a coat, hat and gloves (I lived in Scotland. Even at a young age, if someone says it's going to be cold then you know the thing is real). This was in the early 80's and if I had had a space suit then it would have been the best option. Whoever designed the seating was either a sadist or didn't know what the wind is like in Edinburgh.It blows under your legs I've said to people who were in a bad way before, " At least your not stood in an Edinburgh bus-stop in February". It was probably the most magical thing I have ever seen as a child. The castle, the sound, the smell of gunpowder, the fireworks and cheering and the crowd carrying you along and all good natured and happy smiles.

My dad played the pipes in the sea forth Highlanders I can see him playing in the band brings back great memories sheer magic
