New Year's Eve 2015 live: Scottish celebration plans

Closer to home, in Stirling, Scotland, celebrations will centre around a Carnival of Light and Sound with an evening parade through the city centre, family entertainment in King’s Park and a fireworks display.

The celebrations get under way when a light parade will travel through the streets of the city, featuring costumes and lanterns from local community groups, students, children and artists.

Provost Mike Robbins said: “Stirling is a fantastic place to see in the New Year and our Hogmanay celebrations this year have something for everyone.
