Finalists announced for 2019 Celebrate Aberdeen Awards

Winners will be revealed at P&J Live on September 14th

Published 7th Aug 2019

The finalists have been announced for the 2019 Celebrate Aberdeen Awards.

Introduced last year, the event recognises and celebrates the huge contribution which the city’s third sector makes to thousands of lives across Aberdeen City and Shire.

It follows on from the Celebrate Aberdeen Weekend, which takes place each year at the end of August and features a parade down the city’s Union Street, Union Street mile races and musical and dance performances at various venues across the city centre.

The winners of the awards will be announced at a ceremony held at the P&J Live on Saturday, September 14th. Thanks to the generosity and financial support of the region’s business community which sponsors the awards night, all third sector guests and their friends and families will attend the event for free.
