When is this event?
Come and join us on the Saturday of Grantown Does Christmas for a festive cocktail evening, in benefit of Friends of the Neuro Ward in Aberdeen! We’ve got plenty of choices for cocktails, and Christmas-y nibbles too – plus a raffle and all-round good fun, for a great cause.
All proceeds from ticket sales, and extra drinks sales on the night will go to the charity, to support Wards 204 & 205 at Aberdeen Royal Infirmary – a cause very close to the Wee Puffin’s heart (and one cocktail waitress’ brain!).
Fun evening to start the festive season, very simple idea in a warm and very friendly environment. Set price for the the first pie and pint (500ml bottle of Cairngorm brewery beer) of £10.95 and then pay as you go. Booking essential. call us on 01528 522261 or whats app us on 07515078566 spaces are limited.
