Description

Edinburgh’s groundbreaking visitor levy kicks off this Friday, becoming the UK’s first of its kind — reinvesting tourist dollars directly into the city’s soul. Funds are already fueling the Festival Carnival, boosting street policing, and empowering neighborhoods with $2 million to shape local projects. Clean streets, graffiti removal, and major regeneration efforts get $1.3 million, while culture thrives with $5 million restoring Leith Theatre and $3 million transforming the Old Royal High School into a global music hub — all to sustain Edinburgh’s magic for locals and visitors alike.
