WHAT WILL YOU CHOOSE?

Historical Landmarks

Explore carefully preserved streets of Old Town Aberdeen and plunge back 100 years to a medieval city, while still being close to the modern day heart of Aberdeen. This historic district showcases well-preserved buildings like The High Kirk of St Machar, King's College, and the Old Town House. However, if you’re looking for enchantment, visit Craigievar Castle. The pink 17th century structure is said to have inspired Walt Disney’s Cinderella castle, and hosts an impressive selection of art, weapons and armour.

Cultural Experiences

Head to His Majesty’s theatre to check out Aberdeen’s thriving theatre scene. The granite theatre is a gorgeous landmark, and there is always something new on to get tickets to. Explore one of Scotland’s best art galleries, featuring world renowned Scottish artists and international talents, at Aberdeen Art Gallery. With its recent renovation, it’s ready to be rediscovered. The south side of Aberdeen offers an exotic oasis in the middle of the North of Scotland.

Shopping and Markets

At the heart of the city, Union Square is the perfect shopping centre for fanatics. Just around the corner from the train station, you can find everything from big brands, to great quality food and a cinema to keep the family entertained. For a different pace, check Belmont St Market for an amazing Farmers market. Local food, produce and even hand-crafted goods are available on the last Saturday of every month.

Family-Friendly Activities

Make the kids into little scientists at the Aberdeen science centre. Get immersed in interactive activities and see what you can create. If you’d rather get the kids outdoors to work out their energy, Codona’s Aberdeen is right on the seaside. The amusement park is perfect for kids of all ages with everything from a soft play to go-karts.
