Which New Year's Eve event in Scotland is held annually in Edinburgh's city centre?

The annual New Year’s Eve event held in Edinburgh’s city centre is Edinburgh’s Hogmanay.

Edinburgh’s Hogmanay is a multi-day celebration centered on the Scottish capital. Its best-known elements have included a large street party, concerts, fireworks, and the Torchlight Procession, which traditionally travels through parts of the city before the main festivities.

The modern festival developed from Edinburgh’s wider Hogmanay traditions and became an internationally marketed event. Weather, safety requirements, and public-health conditions can affect individual editions, so schedules and capacities are not identical every year.

Edinburgh’s Hogmanay is separate from the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, which takes place primarily in August. It is also distinct from the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo, another major Edinburgh event held during the summer festival season.
