Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo supports the RCET
£2000 donation from cultural institution
The RCET is delighted to receive a £2000 donation from The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo.
Each year the Tattoo makes a generous contribution to Service charities. These donations help serving and ex-service personnel and their dependents affected by disabilities, stress, sickness, unemployment, homelessness, infirmity and poverty. In recent years, the not-for-profit organisation has gifted more than £5 million to charitable arts and service benevolent organisations.
Set against the splendor of Edinburgh Castle, the Tattoo has delighted audiences for decades. More than 14 million people have attended the Tattoo and around 100 million people watch it each year on television. With close to 1,200 performers from five continents, this year’s Tattoo has a colourful ‘East Meets West’ theme with one of the largest multi-national and multi-cultural casts ever assembled on the Castle Esplanade.
