Birmingham Tattoo - Matinee

A parade like no other, the Birmingham International Tattoo is Britain’s biggest indoor tattoo (a type of military tournament), featuring military and marching bands, pipes and drums, field gun racing, dog racing, standard bearers, dance teams and much more — all culminating in a spectacular Grand Finale with over 1,000 performers.

The event will take place at BP Pulse, Birmingham. As well as the pomp and ceremony of the marching bands, pipes and drums, and field gun racing, the Tattoo also supports youth bands and local groups, including the National Marching Band, cadets and dancers from youth dance schools, giving young musicians and performers a chance to showcase their talents alongside international acts.

The show will also feature the Parade of the Massed Standards, with standard bearers representing veterans’ associations — a highlight that reflects the event’s commitment to honouring and supporting the veteran community. We will also have time at Resorts World beforehand to grab a bite to eat or enjoy some shopping before the show.
