Signature Food Festival
Some of the UK's most celebrated chefs are heading north this November, and you don't need a trip to London to taste their cooking.

Portsoy holds its very first market on Saturday 14 November, and it's a Christmas one. Local producers and makers fill the Portsoy Church Centre, so it's a lovely place to start your Christmas shopping. Children have a grotto to visit and an elf hunt to keep them busy.
The market runs from 1pm to 6pm at the Portsoy Church Centre.
