Christmas Night Market at Balgove Larder
There's something about a farm shop after dark in December, and Balgove Larder, just outside St Andrews, makes an evening of it with its Christmas Night Market on Tuesday 1 December.
Christmas in the Cathedral
16December
If you are in Aberdeen in the week before Christmas, here is a chance to hear Christmas songs sung in a cathedral. The Rock Choirs of Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire come together at St Machar's Cathedral, on The Chanonry, for Christmas in the Cathedral on Wednesday 16 December. The choirs sing twice, at 4.30pm and again at 7.30pm, so you can choose the afternoon or the evening. The concerts raise money for two charities, Men In Mind and Women In Mind. Tickets are £10, and each performance has its own booking page on VisitAberdeenshire's website.
