The curtain came down on another hugely enjoyable Leith Festival with the Community Tattoo at Malmaison Plaza by The Shore on Sunday evening.

Despite the weather being somewhat overcast this didn’t stop a sizeable crowd turning up to enjoy excellent performances from the Penicuik and Musselburgh BB Pipe Band, the Siamsoir and the Irish Dance Academy, Cheekyrrikis Flamenco Power and the Mary Phelan School of Dance with accordionist Shane Brogan bringing the evening to a close with songs from the Great War. Pulse of the Place also took part with all their drum groups playing as one.

The tattoo was formally closed with the Last Post and a minute’s silence to remember those no longer with us.
