Getting there

View the latest information on road closures.

We want your evening to be as enjoyable and stress-free as possible, so follow our advice on the best places to watch and ways to travel to our venues.

Access to Princes Street is possible by one of the following gates:

  1. King's Stables Road
  2. West End of Princes Street by St. John's Church
  3. Floral Clock - Princes Street and the Mound (please note that this is usually the busiest entrance)

All entrances will be open from 7pm and you can exit from any of the above gates.

The Family Viewing Area is in Inverleith Park which lies just to the north of the Stockbridge area, just over a mile from the city centre. Some parking will be available in the vicinity, but we would recommend that you use public transport to avoid extra traffic congestion.

Transport in the city will be available from Lothian Buses - for all the latest information on services visit www.lothianbuses.com

We are grateful that First ScotRail will provide an extra service to Glasgow Queen Street at 2242 (arriving 2343).
