Answer explanation

Media Image

Hogmanay is the Scottish word for the last day of the year or New Year’s Eve and is generally regarded as the most important Scottish holiday. Edinburgh’s Hogmanay Festival dates back to 1993 and has evolved to become one of the greatest outdoor celebrations of New Year’s Eve in the world. Hogmanay is technically just one day but the Hogmanay celebration in Edinburgh (as well as in other places in Scotland) lasts for about 4 days. In any normal year the big events include a torchlight procession and other entertainment [on December 29th 2023], a massive outdoor street party, concerts, and fireworks [on December 31st 2023], and then smaller public entertainment options on January 1st, including a family friendly ceilidh. Some events may also take place on January 2nd, which is a public holiday in Scotland (but not the rest of the UK).
