Birmingham International Tattoo

A parade like no other, the Birmingham International Tattoo is Britain's biggest indoor tattoo featuring military and other marching bands, pipes & drums, field gun racing, dog racing, standard bearers, dance teams and much more including a spectacular Grand Finale with over 1,000 performers. From the Massed International Marching Bands, to the Field Gun competition, to the Massed Parade of Standards, this performance is the end of a journey that has taken many months of practice by the bands and other performers, over one year of planning by the organisation team and many thousands of miles of travel by the bands from across the UK and further afield in Europe. It is impossible to add up the many years of musical experience on parade each year but it must run into many tens of thousands of years, all culminating in the performance for you.
