HOGMANY - NEW YEAR'S EVE IN EDINBURGH

HOGMANY - CELEBRATE NEW YEAR'S EVE IN EDINBURGH 2004 - 05 There is only one place to celebrate the New Year in Europe and that’s at the “home” of New Years Eve - Edinburgh. “Hogmanay” as it is known locally, has always been much more than an excuse to have a party for the Scots. It is more of a national festival that has to been see to be believed. Edinburgh annually hosts the biggest New Years Eve party in Europe - and this year it is going to be massive! New Years Eve with PP is not only HUGE, it is quite a special day. We start the party first thing in the morning with our famous Kiwi/Aussie/SA New Years celebrations. At 11am and 1pm we crack the bubbly for midnight back in NZ and Oz, then party on well into the afternoon. At dusk we head back into town where it’s your turn to join the thousands of mad Scots for the biggest street party in Europe - a real marathon. Will you make it to midnight? It is not just New Years Eve that is a party marathon. With the Hogmanay tour, it is a non-stop party from start to finish!! We drive up to Edinburgh during the day on the 30th and with plenty of refreshments on board, it is usually a great warm up. Immediately after checking into your city centre accommodation the real party begins with our exclusive pre-Hogmanay party at Edinburgh's top nightclub: the Espionage- which is open to 5am! Then on the 1st we give you a few hours to clear the head with an excursion to Stirling, the famous “Braveheart” countryside, before returning to the city for our New Year's Day party at Edinburgh’s famous Frankenstein pub. 2004 will certainly start of with a bang! Finally we drive back to London on the 2nd, giving you the weekend back in London to recover...
