Edinburgh: Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo Front Text: "Military Tatoo, Edinburgh Castle, Scotland"
Reverse Text: "Edinburgh's world famous International Festival is held during the last fortnight of August and the first week in September. The Festival includes almost all of the arts but perhaps the most popular item is the spectacular Military Tattoo. The show is held almost every evening on the Castle Esplanade with the floodlit Castle making a romantic background. Troops from many countries take part but the pipes and drums of the Scottish regiments are always the main attraction."
