Many of the people who gather to view the event up close and personal are not locals but have journeyed from every corner of the globe in order to see it. Named for the call to close shop in the inns in the 17th century, the famous Edinburgh Military Tattoo is not just a local affair. Each year, visiting regiments also come to display their musical prowess. The first overseas regiment that participated was the Band of the Royal Netherlands Grenadiers in 1952. Canada and France also had performers participating in that same year. As the years have passed over 30 countries have been represented at the Tattoo.
每年都有来自全球的各个角落，为一睹其真容而至此的各国游人会聚于此，与这一活动“零距离接触”。著名的军乐队表演源自17世纪旅馆商店关门的声音，它不仅仅是一件当地的大事，每年，都有很多访问团到此一展他们高超的音乐技艺。1952年，第一支海外乐团Royal Netherlands Grenadiers乐队参加了该节，同年还有来自加拿大和法国的表演者参与。随着时间的推移，已经有超过30个国家的表演者在军乐仪队表演上亮相。
