Homes or Homecomings? Managing tourism tensions with European Partners

The Cockburn Association invites you to join us at the City Chambers on 12 May to learn from European partners about managing tourism. This event is part of the Festival of Europe programme.

Hospitality is a core part of Scotland’s culture, but the pressures to meet the demands of high visitor footfall are putting pressures on our capital city. Our session will explore new research into the impact of tourism in Edinburgh and discuss European approaches to managing tourist tensions and balancing the needs of residents and visitors.

Speakers: Professor Aidan McGarry and Massimo D’Angelo, Loughborough University London Campus, Emiliano Treré, Santiago de Compostela and Cardiff University, Roddy Smith, Essential Edinburgh, and Zakia Moulaol, Invisible Cities.

Chair: Rowan Brown, Cockburn Association
