  • Edinburgh’s Hogmanay Festival was cancelled due to safety hazards from stormy weather with winds exceeding 40 mph.
  • The cancellation includes the street party, a concert by rock band Texas, and traditional fireworks from Edinburgh Castle.
  • Organisers had already delayed other events, such as a festive funfair, due to extreme wind conditions.
  • This cancellation affects the city’s tourism significantly, as the festival was projected to generate over £48 million for the local economy.
  • Severe weather has historically impacted the festival, causing cancellations in previous years as well.
