Pitlochry Festival Theatre gives the town a performance venue that draws audiences, and we cover Aberfeldy from the same page. Our event staff, stewards and site guards support venues, distilleries and rural businesses.
Trusted Protection in Pitlochry
Pitlochry's named venue is its Festival Theatre, and audiences arriving for a performance create the kind of crowd that benefits from trained stewards at entrances, car parks and exits. We also support businesses in nearby Aberfeldy. Beyond the theatre, Blair Athol Distillery and Edradour Distillery sit within 5km, along with Aldour Industrial Estate. Visitor attractions, production sites and stock all need protecting, often by the same small team.
Pitlochry Business Profile
Perth and Kinross has 6,235 registered businesses. Agriculture is the largest sector with 945, construction has 895 and professional services 780. At 15.2% of firms, farming is more than three times as common here as in Great Britain as a whole, where it stands at 4.5%. Spread-out farm buildings around Pitlochry and Aberfeldy suit rural mobile patrols and solar CCTV towers.
Utilities make up 1.5% of local businesses against 0.6% nationally, and Clunie Power Station is one of the named sites nearby. Infrastructure of that type generally needs critical-site guarding and remote CCTV monitoring. Every officer we place holds an SIA licence, has passed BS 7858 vetting and is paid through PAYE, with patrols confirmed by GPS book-on.
Pitlochry Festival Theatre is the main named venue within 5km. If its audiences reach 200 or more, Martyn's Law will set duties around preparedness from 2027, and our event officers can help with stewarding and planning. What Martyn's Law means for venues.

Security Requirements in Pitlochry
The named places around Pitlochry are unusual for a small town: two distilleries, a power station, an industrial estate and a festival theatre, alongside Pitlochry Community Hospital and the railway station. Only one construction site is mapped and five pubs and bars, so the commercial picture is dominated by production and visitors.
Distilleries hold valuable stock and equipment, and visitor sites see heavy footfall at some times and none at others. Key holding, alarm response and event staffing fit that pattern well.

Crime & Security Data
Police.uk carries no local crime figures for Pitlochry, since Police Scotland publishes Scottish data through its own channels.
Without a street-level count we would rather judge risk at your premises directly. Our free on-site security audit, worth £250, reviews your access points, lighting, alarms and CCTV coverage against a 25-point checklist. For a theatre or distillery that also means looking at how visitors move through the site and where stock or cash is held.
Local Policing
Pitlochry and Aberfeldy fall under Police Scotland, which publishes its own crime statistics rather than sharing them on Police.uk.
