Travel Pete performs at McGinty's for Aberdeen Comedy Festival 😂

Saturday 13th October 2018 at McGinty's from 4pm.

The name's Pete. Travel Pete. 🚗

You might have heard us talking about this on the radio, we have set Travel Pete up to be the warm-up act at McGinty's on Saturday 13th October, just for a laugh!

Our very own travel guru will be taking the stage before professional comedian Cal Halbert.

He is VERY nervous, he thinks that he will be covered in squishy, squashy tomatoes by the end but we think he's gonna be great.

Wanna see him perform? Tickets can be found here.

There are comedians performing all over the city, for all timings and ticket info just head here.

If you need a bit of a laugh, check out our #jokeoftheday 😂😂😂

P.S. Travel Pete will not be available to dust your house, despite the rumours after this picture emerged. 🙊

Halloween at Bon Accord Aberdeen 🎃

Various dates starting Saturday at Bon Accord from 9am - all day.

Trick or Treat? This is definately a treat for you and the kids this weekend!

Come down (if you dare) to Bon Accord Aberdeen where you will find the Halloween Garden. In the Halloween spooktacular garden, you will find pumpkin hunting, crafts, a ball pit

🎃 AND pumpkin photo opportunities. How fab does that sound? 🎃

The garden will be right across from Costa, which means... you'll also be able to grab a coffee!

That isn't all. There will be a Pumpkin Hunt with 10 pumpkins hidden around Bon Accord and St Nicolas, meaning you can collect a chocolate treat.

How amazing does that sound?!
