What is the name of the New Year's Eve firework festival held in Edinburgh's city centre?

The New Year's Eve firework festival held in Edinburgh's city centre is called Edinburgh's Hogmanay.

Edinburgh's Hogmanay is a large organized celebration in Scotland's capital, centered on December 31 and extending into the New Year. Its program has included a torchlight procession, concerts, street parties, and fireworks near Edinburgh Castle. The exact events and ticket arrangements can change between editions.

The word Hogmanay is the Scottish name for New Year's celebrations, but Edinburgh's Hogmanay is the specific branded festival staged in the city. Scotland's wider Hogmanay traditions also include first-footing and singing “Auld Lang Syne,” which are separate customs rather than alternative names for the festival's fireworks event.

The event's castle setting is especially prominent in photographs and broadcasts. Edinburgh Castle itself is a historic fortress on Castle Rock, while the festival is a modern public celebration around the surrounding city centre.
