Why make New Year's Eve reserved for only one night of celebration? Well, in Scotland at the Edinburgh celebration, every year there are three days of events that all accumulate to make celebrating the end of a year, and the beginning of a new one a right send-off. Over seventy different countries are represented in the crowd of close to one hundred and fifty thousand celebratory enthusiasts. In Scotland, tourists band together to make a special night even better. Full with fireworks, torches and live music, this tradition may be one of the coolest around.
