About Aberdeen
Set between the rivers Don and Dee in the North-East of Scotland, Aberdeen is the best Scottish city to live and work, according to The Good Growth for Cities Index 2019 run by PwC.
With a population of approximately 228,000, Scotland’s third most populous city is prosperous and cosmopolitan, outperforming other major cities in the UK in terms of jobs, skills, income and environment.
Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire provide hundreds of local events organised throughout the year by the respective Councils, event partners and the community.
Aberdeen is a cosmopolitan city which is full of surprises, its mix of international sophistication and old-world intimacy means that it is like nowhere else. Located in the north-east of Scotland, often thought of as ‘true Scotland’ due to its history and landscape, the city provides easy access to sandy coastlines, majestic countryside and The Cairngorm mountains.
