🏰❤️🛍️ Broughty Castle is hosting a special two-day weekend market before closing its doors for the winter!

Taking place on Saturday 17 and Sunday 18 October, the historic Broughty Ferry landmark will welcome visitors for a fantastic weekend of stalls, food and plenty of fun, marking a special send-off to the summer season, hosted by the Yard Market!

It’s also a brilliant opportunity to explore one of Dundee’s most historic attractions, discover its fascinating displays covering local history, wildlife and the arts, and enjoy stunning views across the River Tay. Admission to Broughty Castle is completely FREE!

The castle will officially close for the winter on Sunday 25 October, so there’s not long left to visit before the season comes to an end! Read the full story below for more details about the weekend market!
