Thousands of revellers returned from all over the world to welcome in New Year at Scotland’s biggest street party. Over 40,000 people flooded into Edinburgh for the world-famous Hogmanay for the first time in three years.
The city’s celebrations culminated in a dazzling fireworks show and the Concert in the Gardens headlined by the Pet Shop Boys. The celebrations, watched by one billion people across the world, had not been seen since 2019.
Street events were also taking place in Glasgow, with fireworks in Stirling and at smaller gatherings up and down the country as people celebrated being together for the first time since the easing of Covid restrictions.
