we'll go loving and dancing and prancing and singing in the rain, in the snow, in the icy icy cold and this is what's getting me all hyped up - The Annual Hogmanay Festival.
The Hogmanay Festival is essentially a new year celebration with a difference. This festival takes place on the 31st of December every year and is phenomenally well supported and raucous. It's a ticketed festival that starts quite early in the evening, reaching its peak as expected at midnight with the ringing of bells and plenty of kissing. Then old folk song 'Auld Lang Syne' is sung and followed by more kissing.
Depending on where you are in Scotland, activities for this festival may vary from folk song singing, dancing, torch light processions, the swinging of fireballs and a number of other activities are all combined with lots of laughing and fun for the whole evening and most of the morning.
woohoo baby! make that a wish on the same bright stars.
