I believe the answer is:

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">scottish festival</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(Scottish term for new year's eve)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for hogmanay that I've seen before include "New Year up north" , "First-footing time" , "today" , "New Year's Eve (Scots)" , "Festival" .)
