Curated in the Square Market is staged by Charlie House, in partnership with Aberdeen Inspired, Aberdeen City Council, and Codona’s.
And there’s even more reason to shop local this Christmas! 100% of stallholder fees will go directly to Charlie House, helping support babies, children and young people with life-limiting or life-threatening conditions, and their families across the North-east of Scotland.
Come along, discover something special and support local businesses while making a difference this festive season!
Dogs will be permitted into Curated in the Square and must remain on a lead at all times. Owners should consider whether their dog is comfortable in busy and potentially loud environments before taking their dog along to the Christmas Village or Curated in the Square. Any mess must be cleared by the owner.
