Noun phrase for people who sit in on a meeting
Hi
Is there a noun phrase to refer to people who sit in on a meeting? I'd like to use it as a heading for a page which lists these people, and therefore I'd like it short. I want to use the term "sit-in" but that seems to mean a form of protest. Anyone has an idea on this?

Thanks to AlpheccaStars for your suggestion, but I kind of used "attendees" in some other pages to mean something else. And I would like to have a phrase that has the meaning of "sit in on" in it. Is it possible? Any chance I can use it in gerund form?

Thanks for your suggestions. Here are my thoughts:
Observer is close, but it sounds a bit too formal and seems more suitable to large conferences instead of small business meetings. I'd rather use attendee in this sense.
Participant is too general and inactive sounds negative. (And I think people sitting in on small meetings can be active sometimes?)
People sitting in are not necessari
