The 2008 Knox Tattoo features over 1,000 performers, showcasing the:

• wonderful music of the Knox School Choirs
• amazing finale complete with a spectacular fireworks display, and

Led by the outstanding Knox Grammar Senior School and Preparatory School Pipe Bands, the Knox Tattoo will feature the Knox Old Boys' Pipe Band, Scots College Pipe Band, PLC Sydney and Pipe Bands from Parramatta, Hornsby and Burwood RSL Clubs and the Castle Hill RSL Marching Band.
