Meadowbank Stadium is filled to capacity each year when it hosts Edinburgh's largest firework display. There is no bonfire or Guy, but the light show is set to be spectacular, with rockets shooting high above the city to the sound of music.

Thousands of people crowd into the stadium and you can choose either to brave the weather on the ground itself or get one of the limited tickets in the covered stands. There is plenty of entertainment both before and after the display, with sporting events and a bagpipe performance (in case you need reminding where you are).
