AFTER weather warnings forced the cancellation of Edinburgh’s official Hogmanay celebrations, organisers face questions on its sustainability.

Calling off the fireworks display over the castle, the street party and concerts in Princes Street Gardens after predictions of 70mph winds, a spokesperson for Edinburgh’s Hogmanay said: “We know that this will be hugely disappointing to all hoping to celebrate Hogmanay in Edinburgh and that people travel from around the world to be here.”

Two of those travellers were Aditi Sahu and Neeraj Krishnan, who travelled from London planning their trip around the fireworks.
