The New Year's Eve street festival in Edinburgh's Hogmanay celebrations is called the Street Party.
Edinburgh's Hogmanay program includes a large ticketed Street Party in the city center, traditionally along Princes Street and nearby areas. It combines live music, entertainment, food, and a midnight fireworks display viewed against Edinburgh Castle and the surrounding skyline.
Hogmanay is Scotland's word for New Year's Eve and the associated celebrations. Edinburgh's modern festival developed into a major international event, but it sits within older Scottish customs such as first-footing, in which the first visitor to enter a home after midnight was traditionally expected to bring good fortune and symbolic gifts.
The Street Party is distinct from Edinburgh's Torchlight Procession, which is a separate event held before New Year's Eve. Weather, crowd controls, and public-safety planning can affect the program, so specific venues and arrangements may change between years.
