Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo screened in China

"Cinema is a fantastic way to see the show, since its impeccable sound quality and visuals offer a real flavor of Edinburgh in August," Fusco says.

Throughout the festival's history, troupes from more than 50 countries have participated in the event, including China. And as far back as 2004, the military band of the Chinese People's Liberation Army was invited to perform at the festival.

Most recently, in 2015, a troupe of 80 performers from the PLA band presented a show lasting over 8 minutes which combined army tunes with Chinese folk music.

Meanwhile, Fusco is keen to address the increasing demand for the Tattoo overseas.

In 2016, the Tattoo staged live performances in Australia and New Zealand, attracting audiences of more than 240,000.

As ties between China and the United Kingdom continue to grow, the Tattoo is becoming increasingly well-known in China. The number of Chinese people attending the event in Edinburgh soared in 2016 and the Tattoo is planning to stage performances in China from 2020, Fusco says.
