I am taking my mother to the Edinburgh tattoo next week, she has had a new knee fitted and needs a walking stick to get around.
I swapped my north stand tickets for ground level tickets to make life a bit easier for her.
Has anyone watched the tattoo from ground level, I am worried she will not see much.

Cheers

Unfortunately I'm afraid that your view of the Tattoo will be restricted. However some of the displays this year are spread out a fair bit so it won't be too bad.
It will probably just be the massed bands that will be the most restricted.
Enjoy the spectacle, it's an event I never miss.

The disabled seats under the north stand were great.
You got the odd camera man in front of you from time to time but it was no problem.
It rained heavily for most of the show but we were well shelterd.
It was an amazing night.
