- “In 2024, The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo made its return to the Esplanade resulting in the Trading company returning a profit for the year which allowed for the Charity to increase charitable donations to £750k.”
- “The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo exited the Lothian Pension Scheme during the year. This was approved by the Board of Directors on 29th April 2024 and the cessation surplus of £2M was received in May 2024.”
- “During the year it was identified that irrecoverable VAT had not been fully recognised for the period 2022 to 2024. As a result a provision has been created based on an estimate of irrecoverable VAT due for this period.”
