Tens of thousands of people gathered in Edinburgh to see in the new year at the city’s world-famous Hogmanay street party. Oban brought in the New Year with horns sounding from the boats on the bay, traditional music in Station Square, and an extravagant fireworks display.  Meanwhile, a huge free party featuring the Hoodja, Bags of Rock, Wolfstone and Skerryvore was staged in Inverness. The Red Hot Chilli Pipers and Eddi Reader helped Stirling Castle revellers see in the bells. In Aberdeen, a free firework display was set off from the roof of His Majesty’s Theatre in the city centre. Glasgow hosted a family day, which ended at 22:00 GMT, with traditional music and children’s activities. The city council had previously said it was not holding a street party this year due to the cost.
