This Tattoo will include an emotional and grateful tribute to the United States Army, Navy and Marine Corps on the occasion of their 250th Birthdays. With stirring music and presentations, tributes from U.S. military bands and appearances by special guests, this Tattoo will remind us that as Americans, we have lived under a blanket of freedom woven by the service and sacrifice of our fellow citizen soldiers for 250 years. And of course we will celebrate the men and women of the U.S. Coast Guard, Air Force, and Space Force as well! The Virginia International Tattoo – A Scottish Tradition with American Soul!
