Malawi choir to perform at Edinburgh Military Tattoo

31 July 2018

A choir from Edinburgh will take centre stage at this year's Edinburgh Military Tattoo.

We're delighted to announce that a choir from Malawi will perform at this year's Edinburgh Military Tattoo.

The Edinburgh Girls' High School from Malawi will perform for the first time with girls from the Mary Erskine School choir.

The Malawi school, named because of its close link with the Mary Erskine School, is now in its fifth year with a total roll of 160 girls in the region of Engcongolweni, near Mzuzu.

The theme of the show is The Sky's the Limit with projections to be shone on to the Edinburgh Castle walls during performances. More than 1,200 cast and crew are involved in the organisation of the Tattoo, which plays out to an audience of 8,800 each evening.
