Which New Year's Eve event has been held in Edinburgh's Princes Street Gardens since 1993?

The New Year’s Eve event held in Edinburgh’s Princes Street Gardens since 1993 is Edinburgh’s Hogmanay.

Edinburgh’s Hogmanay is a major public celebration centered on the Scottish capital. Its program has included concerts, street parties, torchlight processions, and fireworks, with Princes Street Gardens serving as a prominent concert and viewing location. The event attracts visitors from Scotland and around the world.

The modern organized celebration was established in 1993, building on Scotland’s older Hogmanay traditions. Its events have changed over time, and particular editions can be altered or canceled because of weather, safety, public health, or other circumstances.

Edinburgh’s Hogmanay is distinct from the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, which is principally a performing-arts festival held in August. It is also separate from the city’s Christmas market program. The word Hogmanay itself names the broader Scottish New Year celebration, while Edinburgh’s Hogmanay identifies the city’s branded public event.
