AS Donald Trump packs his bag and police prepare for one of the biggest operation's ever seen in Scotland, protesters are also organising to welcome the US president.
A major policing operation is being put in place both the visit and any protests that may spring up as a result of it, with Police Scotland seeking officers from other areas of the UK to bolster its numbers.
Concerns have also been raised about the cost of the policing operation, with officers likely to cancel rest days to ensure adequate staffing.
Police are working on the assumption that there will be protests in Ayrshire, Aberdeen, Glasgow and Edinburgh.
Here's what we know so far.

What have the protesters said?
“The people of Scotland don’t want to roll out a welcome mat for Donald Trump, whose government is accelerating the spread of climate breakdown and fascism around the world," a spokesperson for Stop Trump Scotland said.
The organisation added: “As ordinary Scots face a continued cost-of-living crisis, it is unacceptable that they are being forced to pay for Trump’s security during what is a private visit. Scotland is not his playground.
“We encourage all those who can to come to Aberdeen to show Trump exactly what we think of him in Scotland — and those who can’t should join demonstrations wherever they are.
“Even if Keir Starmer bends the knee to Trump, John Swinney should stand with the people of Scotland and say no to a humiliating photo opportunity with the leader of the international far-right.”
