Beltane Business Survey

Did your business see an increase in customers during Beltane 2026 or did you contribute in any way to this year’s celebrations? If so, we’d love to hear from you.

Now that the main festival period for Peebles Beltane Festival has finished, we are inviting local businesses to share their experiences as part of an important piece of research.

This research aims to better understand the economic, social and cultural value of these events, including their impact on local businesses, communities and the wider visitor economy.

As part of this work, we would greatly appreciate it if you could take 5–10 minutes to complete a short survey and share your insights.
