Forever Edinburgh is inviting city residents to make the most of two upcoming Resident Days - Carers Rights Day (Thursday 20 November) and St Andrew’s Day (Sunday 30 November).
Resident Days give those who live in Edinburgh access to free or discounted activities, attractions and tours across the city. These dedicated days are part of Forever Edinburgh’s Resident Rewards programme, designed to thank local people for their ongoing support of the city’s visitor economy.
The next Resident Day, held to mark Carers Rights Day, will focus on unpaid carers in Edinburgh, providing a series of free and discounted experiences in collaboration with Shared Care Scotland and VOCAL Carers Hub.
Later in the month, Edinburgh residents can look forward to celebrating Scotland’s national day on St Andrew’s Day, with a host of local businesses offering special rates and unique experiences for residents to enjoy as part of this citywide celebration.
Looking ahead, the final Resident Day of the season will mark Burns Night on Sunday 25 January 2026, rounding off the programme with offers inspired by Scotland’s national bard.
Councillor Jane Meagher, leader of the City of Edinburgh Council, said: “Resident Days put our residents at the heart of the city’s visitor economy. Edinburgh is known across the world for its history and culture, but it’s the people who live here who make it truly special.
"These rewards are a way of saying thank you and encouraging everyone to rediscover what makes our city so remarkable.”
This project is funded by the UK government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.
