On a similar vein in that it includes Marines, lighting and filming has improved...

The tattoo 2020 finale, not quite the same but it is historic in that the event never happened in 2020.

An odd thing i just realised tonight is that the Edinburgh Military Tattoo is being replicated worldwide...

2019 Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo - Sydney highlights
https://youtu.be/V1SiQ1IStVg

Edinburgh is a small City of circa 400,000 people today, in the 70's when i grew up it was less than 300,000... i get why Scotland could be so influencial given the historic impact Scotland had on the world but it never ceases to amaze me why such a fringe event should be so important to the rest of the world.

Seeing events with mock up Edinburgh Castle's is both mind-boggling and humbling.
