Description

Edinburgh braces for its biggest summer yet as millions descend for the International Festival and Fringe, triggering Police Scotland’s massive Operation Summer City 2026. With crowds swelling to a million, extra officers—including specialists and special constables—are deployed across the city. Beyond visible patrols, Project Servator tactics are in action: tech like CCTV and ANPR, plus community engagement, aim to deter crime and reassure everyone. Public safety tips will flood social media, urging vigilance, secure belongings, and quick reporting of suspicious activity. Nightlife safety is key, with strict enforcement on alcohol-related offenses. Enjoy the festival—but stay smart, stay safe, and look out for each other.
