The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo usually takes place in August of each year. Top Secret Drum Corps may be join Edinburgh Military Tattoo this year to celebrate Tattoos 70th birthday in August 2020. The Edinburgh Tattoo Tickets can be booked online.

Top Secret Drum Corps is a Basel based drum corps of Switzerland. It became famous for its demanding six-minute routine performance which was performed at the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo in 2003. Top Secret became one of the first non-military, non-British Commonwealth acts to occur on the Esplanade of Edinburgh Castle with his invitation to Edinburgh.

Since its success in 2003, Top Secret has been invited to return to Edinburgh in 2006 with a new routine. They were invited a third time in 2009 and again in 2012, 2015 and 2018.

Under the direction of Erik Julliard, the group is also responsible for the founding of the Basel Tattoo, a military tattoo parlor similar to the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo is now held annually in Basel.

Since its performance in 2003 in Edinburgh, Top Secret has enjoyed worldwide success. They performed on various sites in Europe, the United States, Australia and at the 2008 South African Tattoo which was held from September 11 to 14, 2008. In 2011, they played at the Quebec Military Tattoo.

They are the subject of a documentary film from Swiss television which traces their rise to the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo. A feature film based on the Edinburgh effort is currently being prepared with Insert Films, Switzerland.

Top Secret made an appearance on an episode of the 2014 Saturday night take-out series of Ant and Dec, as an act for the show "End of the Show".

In their routine, the presenters of shows Ant and Dec joined them as drummers, inverted versions of the color of the drummers' jackets (Ant and Dec wore white; drummers always wear black).

The routine included the ever-present duel of drummers, juggling with the stick and the routine with the stick of fire.

A Top Secret Drum Corps drum loop is very present on the British electronic music group The Prodigy's, in 2015, The Day Is My Enemy, which also became the title of the album released the same year.

Prodigy founder and producer Liam Howlett is reportedly a big fan of the Top Secret Drum Corps and has asked permission to record a drum section for use on the band's album.
