One of the most popular dates in the Edinburgh calendar, the sell-out event regularly sees military bands and display teams from across the world perform exciting routines to the imposing backdrop of Edinburgh Castle.
Taking place over the month of August, the festival is set to return for 2022 after being postponed over the past two years due to the pandemic.
