Hogmanay

Scotland is the place to party! Enjoy Scotland's world famous Hogmanay celebrations with a variety of events across the country as we herald the year of Homecoming. Edinburgh leads the celebrations with an all star music line up on 4 live stages followed by a fantastic firework finale. Then, in the first minutes of 2009, 100,000 people from all over the world will unite in song at Edinburgh's Hogmanay Street Party for the world's biggest rendition of Burns' most famous work, Auld Lang Syne.

See the rest of Scotland sparkle at an array of events across the country. From a true Glasgow welcome in George Square to Stonehaven's colourful fireball procession; from the spectacular surroundings of Stirling Castle's Esplanade to soaking up the family atmosphere at Oban's Hogmanay Street party or see in the New Year in Inverness with the Magic Numbers.
