The city known for a Hogmanay torchlight procession through its streets is Edinburgh.
Edinburgh's Torchlight Procession is associated with the city's Hogmanay festival and traditionally leads thousands of participants through central streets toward an ending point near Holyrood Park. Participants carry flaming torches, creating a moving river of light against the city's historic buildings and hills.
The procession has become a modern opening event for Edinburgh's New Year program, though its organization and route can vary. It draws on Scotland's long relationship with fire rituals and winter celebrations without being the same thing as the midnight street party on Princes Street.
Hogmanay itself is broader than any single Edinburgh event. It includes household customs such as first-footing, public music, dances and countdown celebrations. The torchlight event is especially visually distinctive, which is why it is often highlighted in descriptions of Edinburgh's New Year's Eve festivities.
