You never need an excuse to party in Manchester but come New’s Year Eve, the city really goes to town. The locals really know how to party, from cheap and cheerful celebrations to full-blown fireworks. You could celebrate the New Year with a sumptuous meal at your Manchester hotels, larging it at one of the hottest night spots or grabbing a local and singing Auld Lang Syne at an old-man’s pub.
When you’re not partying, explore this Victorian city’s thriving historical scene or marvel at its gound-breaking architecture. Head to the city centre’s area of Spinningfields, which has recently been redeveloped and now features a rather impressive collection of slick buildings and an ice rink. Why not book an ice skating trip for New Year’s Eve – it’s not only fun but a quirky and unusual way to ring in the New Year in style.
Navigate your way around this well connected city and explore from your Manchester hotels – you’ll be able to make your way home with ease. Manchester is as proud of its cultural side as it is it’s hedonistic side, so make sure you explore both. Stay in one of the many city centre hotels and you’ll be close enough to a wide range of museums, galleries and art houses.
Pack your kilt and tartan for Scotland where New Year’s is their biggest event. The Scots sure know how to throw a party!. One city that really takes it seriously is Edinburgh, a great place to visit for the jovial culture, architecture and history too. This elegant capital city opens up its arms to an international audience at this time of the year. Cosy up in one of the many homely Edinburgh hotels for when you need some rest and relaxation during this frantic festive season. A great place to spend New Year’s Eve is Edinburgh’s Princes Street, where tickets are a must. An impressive fireworks display rings in the New Year here. Over in the Princes Street Gardens there are live performances from the coolest bands including Bombay Bicycle Club and Primal Scream.
