## Resource

Perth is set to host Scotland’s first-ever People’s Meeting, a groundbreaking democracy festival inspired by Denmark’s wildly popular Folkemødet, which draws 100,000+ attendees annually. Designed to bring politicians, businesses, and everyday citizens together for open, respectful dialogue on Scotland’s future, the event aims to build a more inclusive and sustainable society — right in the heart of Perth. After beating out Rothesay, local leaders studied the Danish model firsthand and are thrilled to turn their city into a national hub for civic engagement, boosting tourism and investment while sparking vital conversations across Scotland.
