Organisers of The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo have announced two additional performances for the event’s Brisbane debut in February 2026, following the presale sell-out of its Saturday 14 February show. The large-scale international production will now include four performances at Suncorp Stadium, with new shows confirmed for Friday 13 February and Sunday 15 February 2026. Tickets are on sale now via Ticketek.
Presented by RACQ, The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo will make its exclusive Australian return with its 75th anniversary show, The Heroes Who Made Us. Brisbane will host the production for the first time, following previous editions in Sydney (2005, 2010, 2019) and Melbourne (2016).
The production will feature over 1,000 performers from around the world, including massed pipe and drum bands, the Top Secret Drum Corps, dancers, and military acts from the UK, Australia, New Zealand, and Europe. Blending traditional Scottish heritage with modern stagecraft, the show will incorporate lighting effects, sound design, and visual displays to deliver a large-scale stadium experience.
Jason Barrett, CEO of The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo, acknowledged the enthusiastic response from Queensland audiences:
The response from Queensland has been phenomenal. To be announcing third and fourth shows at Suncorp Stadium is a true testament to the excitement and passion Australians have for the Tattoo. As we count down to our historic debut in Brisbane, we’re more inspired than ever to deliver a world-class spectacle that honours tradition, celebrates community, and leaves a lasting legacy in Queensland.
The 2026 tour is supported by the Queensland Government, Tourism and Events Queensland, Brisbane City Council through the Brisbane Economic Development Agency, and Suncorp Stadium.
