Fort George near Inverness is to host a military tattoo from 5-7 September 2014, as part of the Year of Homecoming 2014 celebrations. The event will be the biggest of its kind after the Edinburgh Royal Military Tattoo which is held each year in August at Edinburgh Castle.
Fort George, a working barracks built in the aftermath of the Jacobite Rebellion in the 1700s, sits on the shores of the Moray Firth at Ardesier to the east of Inverness. It is the only property in the care of Historic Scotland which still serves its original purpose as it is still used by the British Army. You can also find the regimental museum of the Highlanders (Camerons & Seaforths) here.
