Revellers will be able to catch a tram for free after bringing in the bells at Edinburgh's Hogmanay celebrations.
They'll be running every 20 minutes between the West End and the airport from midnight until 5am on New Year's Day.
This is the second year fares have been ditched on the trams for the big night.
Lea Harrison, Edinburgh Trams Managing Director said, "Thanks to its famous Hogmanay, Edinburgh is arguably the best place in the world to celebrate the New Year, and the city attracts tens of thousands of visitors from across the globe.
"The introduction of free night trams for the first time at the turn of 2017 proved a huge success.
"We’re delighted to once again be able to help visitors to make the most of a very special night and to enjoy a safe journey home afterwards."
The celebrations start on 30th December with the Torchlight Procession in the heart of the city before reaching a climax with an extended firework display to welcome in the New Year.
The Concert in the Gardens will be headlined by Rag'n'Bone man, supported by Edinburgh singer Nina Nesbitt and songwriter Declan McKenna.
Synth-pop act The Human League will headline the Waverley Stage, while the street party will be hosted by Still Game actor, Sanjeev Kohli
