The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo has today announced Vodafone as its new Presenting Partner, marking the beginning of an exciting partnership that stems from shared values and a commitment to supporting military and local communities.

Joining Glenfiddich, Innis & Gunn and Pentland Land Rover, this partnership marks a significant milestone for Vodafone as it continues to strengthen its presence in Scotland and deepen its relationships with the Ministry of Defence (MOD) and other key stakeholders. It also showcases the Tattoo’s evolution and commitment to future proofing the annual event. Highlighting their dedication to engaging with local and military audiences which are two key groups that are central to the organisations mission and values.

To celebrate, Vodafone is extending a unique opportunity for EH postcode residents and UK Military personnel to take advantage of a 25% discount on tickets for the 6:15 pm performance on Friday, 22 August.

Celebrating 75 years of the Tattoo, the 2025 Show The Heroes Who Made Us promises a breathtaking display of music, lights, and precision. Fans will witness the moving and passionate songs from the Ukrainian Community Choirs, exhilarating and visually stunning carnival drums of Top Secret Drum Corps from Switzerland and the military precision and excellence of the Paris Port Dover Pipes and Drums who have been hailed as proud ambassadors of the cultural diversity of their homeland, Canada.

Jason Barrett, CEO of The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo, expressed his enthusiasm: “We are thrilled to welcome Vodafone UK as our new presenting partner. Their dedication to security and their cultural commitments align perfectly with our values. This partnership allows us to offer something special to our local and military audiences. By working together, we can provide exclusive benefits that honour and celebrate these key communities.”

Scotland remains an important market for Vodafone as it looks to extend its 5G standalone coverage across 99% of the UK population by 2034. The expansion of 5G services is crucial for driving innovation, economic growth, and connectivity in both urban and rural communities, ensuring that Scotland remains at the forefront of digital development.
