A cast of over 1,200 people from around the world performed at Edinburgh Castle in front of the royal duo.

Prince William and Prince Charles both attended the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo

Charles is known as the Duke of Rothesay in Scotland, and it was the Rothesay flag that flew above the castle once arrived. The Prince, dressed in a Royal Navy admiral uniform, was at the Tattoo as a guest of honor, accompanied by William.

In front of the sold-out show, the royal duo made a toast to good health, given in Gaelic, with a 10-year Glenkinchie whiskey dram, which comes from the distillery closest to Edinburgh.

The 9th French Marine Infantry Brigade Fanfare Band was among the highlights, with Better, Faster, Harder, Strong with two of the musicians wearing Daft Punk style helmets.

Some fireworks had to be canceled due to strong winds, which also caused the central band of Japan Ground Self Defense Force Central to fall on the drummer halfway through their set.

The royal duo received a special performance before the tattoo at the Palace of Holy Roodhouse. The acts gave Charles and William close representation in the yard. The prince and duke then spent time talking with artists and posed for a group photo.

William wore a black tie with Submariner Dolphins and Golden and Diamond Jubilee medals. Its 68th season recognizes 2017 as the year of the Royal Navy and precedes the official name of the aircraft carrier HMS Prince of Wales later this year.

It also marks the Year of Scottish History, Heritage and Archeology with a second theme "Splash of Tartan". Charles and William, who takes the title of Earl of Strathearn north of the border, attended the tattoo around the middle of his August run.

The first Edinburgh Tattoo took place in 1950, with the first overseas regiment in 1952. Since then, 48 countries from six continents have been represented at the Tattoo.

It attracts an annual audience of around 220,000 people, which means that more than 14 million people have attended the Tattoo since its inception.
