2025
Amy Irons leads Scotland into the New Year with music, comedy, celebrity guests and live coverage from Edinburgh as the countdown to the bells gets underway.
Amy Irons leads Scotland into the New Year with Hogmanay 2025, featuring music from Nathan Evans, Michelle McManus, Tide Lines’ Robert Robertson, and Georgia Cécile performing classic Scottish modern tunes backed by Roddy Hart and the Lonesome Fire. Plus award-winning Scottish trad supergroup Mànran perform.
Some of Scotland’s biggest stars join Amy to look back at their highlights of 2025. Also joining the party are Scottish comedy icons Karen Dunbar and Tom Urie, reuniting as Almost Angelic for a special Hogmanay performance, while Chief Commissioner Cameron Miekelson - aka The Chief - delivers his special address to the people of Scotland.
As is tradition, we go live to Edinburgh with Des Clarke, who will be at the heart of the action in the capital to lead us into the countdown to the bells, with the lone piper on the ramparts of the castle, the firing of the iconic Mons Meg at midnight, and the city’s amazing firework display, soundtracked by the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra.
