SAVE THE DATES!

LOCAFEST 2025 - the inaugural celebration of community led tourism in Scotland.

 

LOCAFEST 2025 is a three-day festival of regenerative tourism taking place from 15 - 17 October in the stunning Perthshire communities of Dunkeld and Birnam. Everyone will be welcomed as a temporary local to immerse themselves in community-led tourism in action.


Whether you’re a local, live in another Scottish community, are a tourism business or a visitor, do join us for three days of fun and inspiration.


* As a local, you’ll witness community-led tourism in action and the benefits this provides


* As a resident of another community, you’ll experience how tourism can be a force for good and how you, as an individual in your own community, can turbo-charge this.


* As a tourism operator, you’ll be inspired to work much more closely with your local community and the communities your business visits.


* As a visitor, you’ll be geared up to seek out and fully embrace the local community spirit on your travels and learn how to give something simple back to make your host community an even better place to live, work, and visit.

LOCALfest25 is the brainchild of Raven Sinclaire of Traceless Tours and is being delivered in partnership with the communities of Dunkeld & Birnam and SCOTO (Scottish Community Tourism Network) with the support of Historic Environment Scotland and others.
