Mass demonstrations are expected in some of the country's major cities, as well as outside the Trump Turnberry golf resort in Ayrshire, where it is reported he will be staying during his visit. Tens of thousands of people are being called upon to attend the protests, if you would like to join one - then check out our list of all the major organised below. (Image: PA) Friday In Glasgow, Scotland Against Trump has organised a protest in George Square on Friday evening. The protest is scheduled to run from 5pm to 8pm and will include speeches, music and games including 'Toss the welly at Trump' and 'Mini golf'. Sounds fun! In Dundee, between 5pm and 6.30pm a protest will be taking place in the City Square on Friday as part of what organisers are calling "massive show of opposition" against the US President. In Dumfries, a branch of the Scottish Green Party have organised a rally between 5.30pm and 6.30pm in the town centre at the Robert Burns statue. Saturday In Edinburgh, there will be a national demonstration at noon outside the Scottish Parliament on Saturday. This is expected to potentially be the largest of all the Trump protests. There will be speeches as well as music and games including mini golf and protesters will then meet to continue the demonstration, in what's being called a “Carnival of Resistance” at 2.30pm in The Meadows area of the capital. And tonight, a crafts event has been organised for people wanting to make a banner by Scotland Against Trump between 6pm and 9.30pm at the Augustine United Church at George IV Bridge. Near Aberdeen, a rally organised by the Aberdeen Trade Union Congress (ATUC) will take place at the Trump International Links at Balmedie, just up the the coast from the city. It's not been stated whether President Trump will pay a visit to the course yet but a protest will take place at the Menie Estate between 11am and 3pm. In Ayrshire, outside the Trump Turnberry resort where he is scheduled to be staying a protest will be staged from 9am. Comedian Janey Godley, who was pictured with a sign saying 'Trump is a c***' at the golf course two years ago, has been encouraging people to go along and be respectful but has warned that there will probably be no public toilets. These are just the major protests which have been organised so far but others are expected to spring up in localities across the country. Over 5,000 extra police officers are being drafted in to provide increased security with the UK Government footing the bill for the increased policing. The US Embassy has warned of potential violence during the visit and has told American people in the UK to keep a low profile. Campaigners and figures from various political parties have urged people to oppose Trump's visit. Scotland United Against Trump’s Kirsty Haigh said: “Trump likes to talk up his Scottish connections – but we are going to show that his politics are not welcome here. “A growing coalition of organisations and campaigns are coming together to say that Scotland will stand united against Trump. We are going to build support for two massive days of action with a rally in Glasgow and national demonstration and festival in Edinburgh. “We will also send a message to the Tory Government that we will not tolerate their pandering to Trump.”<doc-sep>At a gay pride event in Glasgow on Saturday, she told the BBC: "If the opportunity arises to meet the president I will do that and I'm sure if the opportunity arises in the future we will have lots to talk about, including the close and very important links between our two countries.<doc-sep>

About 250,000 people turned out on Friday for mass demonstrations against the president in London, though his schedule largely kept him away from the protests. On Friday night, a Greenpeace activist used a paraglider to fly over Trump’s Turnberry resort while holding a banner that read “Trump: Well Below Par.” Protesters are also hoping to fly a blimp depicting Trump as a baby over the course in Scotland after it made its debut during the London protests. Police in Scotland have said that the blimp won't be allowed to fly at the resort, but that they "are in discussion with the applicants about possible alternatives." Trump told the British tabloid The Sun in an interview published Thursday that the protests in London make him feel "unwelcome." “I used to love London as a city,” Trump said. “I haven’t been there in a long time. But when they make you feel unwelcome, why would I stay there?”
