The largest programme of research ever undertaken into Edinburgh’s twelve major Festivals, comprising 15,000 survey responses over a twelve month period, not only reaffirms Edinburgh’s position as the world’s Festival City but articulates, for the first time, the contribution the Festivals make to the social, cultural and civic life of Scotland and its capital city.
BOP Consulting was commissioned to conduct an impact assessment of the twelve Festivals represented by Festivals Edinburgh. The Study was commissioned by the Festivals Forum and in partnership with Scottish Enterprise, Festivals Edinburgh, City of Edinburgh Council, EventScotland (also representing VisitScotland), The Scottish Government and Scottish Arts Council (now Creative Scotland).
