Official Supporters of the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo

Bernard Hunter is proud to be an official supporter of the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo—one of Scotland’s most iconic and internationally celebrated events.

For several years, we’ve worked closely with the Tattoo team and the main contractors to support the construction and dismantling of the grandstand on the Castle Esplanade. This impressive temporary structure takes approximately eight weeks to build and the same to remove, requiring careful planning, logistical precision, and technical expertise.

Operating within a tight and historically sensitive site, we deploy our Liebherr mobile cranes and Spierings mobile tower crane, which are ideally suited for complex urban environments. Their versatility ensures safe and efficient operations in the restricted space around Edinburgh Castle.

With the Castle remaining open to the public during the entire build period, our team delivers every lift with the utmost care, professionalism, and attention to detail—ensuring minimal disruption to this world-famous landmark.

As proud official supporters, we are honoured to contribute to an event that showcases Scotland’s culture, music, and military tradition to a global audience.
