Aberdeenshire’s annual Doors Open Days event will be hosting a blended event in 2022 giving visitors both physical and online access to buildings across the Shire on Saturday and Sunday 17/18 September.

Although last year’s event was somewhat different as a result of covid restrictions, more than 30 venues took part.

The event is coordinated at a national level by the Scottish Civic Trust, and locally by Aberdeenshire Council’s environment team.

This year the team is looking to promote Aberdeenshire’s culture and heritage through a blended event, combining virtual and physical venues.

If you are part of or know of an organisation or community who would wish to participate, email doorsopen@aberdeenshire.gov.uk

The team also hopes to build on the Scottish Government’s Year of Stories by using the Doors Open Days event to highlight and celebrate stories inspired by, written, or created in Scotland.
