Bag your tickets for the Highlands’ best Hogmanay party
Sponsored editorial with Macdonald Aviemore Resort
No less than the most famous bagpipe band on the planet will be providing the entertainment - it can not get more Hogmanay than that!
The Red Hot Chilli Pipers have played at the BBC Proms, the Glasgow Commonwealth Games, the Rugby World Cup and F1 and list Sir Paul McCartney, Sir Alex Ferguson, Ewan McGregor and even Samuel L Jackson as amongst their fans.
They will be bringing the skirl of the pipes to the award-winning resort and in their own words it will be a show ‘so hot it carries its own health warning’.
The pipers with bags of attitude will be delivering their headline infectious style of feel-good music from 11pm to 1am followed by the resort’s famed fireworks display to create the most memorable of beginnings to 2025.
There will then be live music from one of the country’s most in-demand cover bands VH5 from 9.45pm to 10.45pm before the Red Hot Chilli Pipers rock the stage.
The Hogmanay celebrations continue afterwards with a disco and ceilidh until 2am for those guests still with some energy remaining.
There’s no need to worry about securing taxis and mini-buses at the busiest time of the year when the resort’s hotels provide comfortable and well-appointed rooms.
The four-star accommodation at the resort includes a variety of room options to suit different needs from family rooms to romantic suites and luxury woodland lodges for larger groups.
A resort spokeswoman said: “We are offering exclusive two or three-night getaway packages, starting from just £465 per night for two filled with fantastic music, exquisite dining, and incredible festivities.
“In addition, last week we launched a special Red Hot Chilli Hogmanay dinner and entertainment package, available for £125 per ticket which has been selling incredibly well.
“This is a fantastic way to join the fun without opting for the full accommodation package but those interested need to be quick as there are only a limited number of tickets left.”
The big night is geared to a wide range of ages from families with older children (16 years and over) to those who have seen their fair share of old years out.
The resort also has a great array of leisure facilities including its own pool and spa rooms, luxury shopping, cinema, restaurants and bars.
It is great to know that there will be a Highlands hotspot for Hogmanay providing a truly unique evening after organisers sadly recently had to cancel the region’s traditionally biggest New Year party.
Inverness’ popular Red Hot Highland Fling was axed because the city’s Northern Meeting Park and Bught Park are currently subject to major revamps and improvements and mean the celebration would have run at a huge loss.
Tickets for the big night at the Macdonald Aviemore Resort can be booked directly here.
