Happy New Year! Hardy Brits don't let the rain dampen their parade as they shake off dreary weather and watch stunning firework displays to kick off 2024

Hardy revellers have braved the lashing rain and strong winds to usher in 2024, as the nation came together to kick off the New Year in spectacular style.

Despite the miserable weather, revellers flocked to the banks of the Thames in the early evening, hours ahead of the traditional London fireworks which lit up the skies as Big Ben struck midnight.

The iconic display in the capital also featured a drone show to the backdrop of some of the most popular music, with crowds blown away by the magical event.

Another breathtaking firework display is also taking place in Edinburgh as part of the iconic Hogmanay celebrations.
