DPS Group powering the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo

Find out more about our work with the world-famous Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo, as work begins to dismantle the stadium following another successful run!


For the eighth successive year, DPS Group's talented team of electrical specialists have been working with the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo.

Now that the run is complete, work is well underway to dismantle the stadium and the remarkable requirements needed to put on a world-famous performance every night for three weeks, which is seen globally by one billion people every year.

In this film, we meet Ian Strachan who project manages our programme of work with the tattoo which includes:

  • Instalation of specially designed "plug & play" electrical cabling system, spanning 17 miles 
  • Bespoke digital management system for the site's floodlight system 
  • Instalation and management of all water facilities, both waste and fresh 
  • Facilities management on site throughout the course of the run - from the moment the 40 day build gets underway


DPS Group works with some of the world's highest profile brands delivering integrated electrical, instrumentation and control solutions.
