What New Year's Eve event has taken place in Edinburgh's Princes Street Gardens as part of Hogmanay celebrations?

Concert in the Gardens is a New Year's Eve event held in Edinburgh's Princes Street Gardens as part of Edinburgh's Hogmanay celebrations.

The concert is one element of a larger festival that can include street parties, torchlight processions, and events spread through central Edinburgh. Princes Street Gardens lies beneath Edinburgh Castle, giving the concert a distinctive landmark backdrop.

Edinburgh's Hogmanay became internationally prominent through organized civic events that expanded in the late twentieth century. The city celebration has changed format over time, but the combination of live music, outdoor crowds, and a midnight fireworks display has remained central to its identity.

It is easy to confuse Concert in the Gardens with Edinburgh's separate Street Party. They are related Hogmanay events, but the concert has its own name and venue. Event programs and performers can change from year to year, while the location and festival association provide the stable identifying facts.
