The Fratellis perform at Princes Street Gardens in Edinburgh for the Hogmanay celebrations on 30 December 2026. The band is set to kick-start the year's festivities with special guests to be announced.
One of Scotland’s most iconic live bands, The Fratellis burst onto the scene with their era-defining debut album Costello Music in September 2006, delivering anthemic hits including Chelsea Dagger, Whistle for the Choir and Henrietta. With an unmistakable energy and a feel-good live show, this is set to be an unforgettable night underneath Edinburgh Castle to kick-start 2026 Hogmanay celebrations. Plus very special guests to be announced. "It's such an honour & privilege to be asked to perform at this year's Hogmanay celebrations in a city that we hold so close to our Hearts" - The Fratellis
