The main Hogmanay event taking place will be the Street Party which will include live music, DJs, giant screens, pipers, drummers, funfair attractions as well as delicious street food stalls.
There will be three zones; the DJ Zone (Waverley Bridge), The Tartan Zone (Castle Street) as well as one catering to street theatre performances.
At the DJ Zone, revellers will be able to enjoy non-stop bangers from Tom Lowndes alongside BBC Radio 1 DJ Arielle Free.
The Tartan Zone features some of the best Scottish trad music, including tunes from artists like Peatbog Faeries and Celtic-electronic duo Valtos.
The Street Theatre and Performance Zone will see Close Act walk, run, jump and even fly amongst the crowds in a rivetting display. Edinburgh Noise Committee will also provide some high-energy drumming alongside other acts like the spectacular DeLighters.
