Chris Thornton, Buxton Military Tattoo’s event manager, says “Our ninth year has come round so quickly and I am sure that we will again have a fabulous Tattoo showcasing the marvellous military bands that the UK can be so proud of. I am delighted that we have also managed to contribute over £82,000 to the army’s national charity.”
