In the UK, the New Year celebration takes place on the night of December 31, January 1, according to the Gregorian calendar. The New Year is considered a less important holiday than Christmas, and is therefore celebrated without gifts. Nevertheless in Scotland, the opposite is true.In the UK it is not customary to give expensive and big New Year's gifts, as the holiday is only a continuation of Christmas. Nevertheless, close people exchange useful trifles and souvenirs like key fobs, candles or beautiful tea spoons.
