    'Cavalcades and Gala's Held in Edinburgh'

    Edinburgh has always been a city of festivals, cavalcades and Gala's.  The Miners Gala played a large part in Edinburgh's history until it came to an end when the mines were shut down.  The Festival Cavalcade is an annual event that heralds the beginning of the Edinburgh Military Tattoo and all the other festivals that come to life each year.  The Edinburgh Mela is another event that has become part of Edinburgh's annual events where thousands of people gather to get a flavour of foods and entertainment from all cultures
