What's on in Aboyne

Aboyne sits in the heart of Royal Deeside, far enough from Aberdeen to feel like proper countryside but close enough that people actually show up to things. The Shows at Aboyne pull in visitors from across the north-east each year, and the village calendar fills up around them. Near Here rounds up what's on locally so you're not piecing it together from parish notices and laminated posters. Rural life is busier than it looks from the outside.
