13 things to do in Aberdeen this weekend

We do this every week: read through everything happening in Aberdeen, cross out the filler, and keep the stuff worth leaving the house for. This weekend (Oct 02–Oct 04) gave us 13 events to choose from. These are the keepers.

11 venues are hosting something this weekend, which tells you everything about how busy Aberdeen gets when October rolls around. Most events are ticketed. Details below.

If you're deciding between Friday and Saturday: Saturday wins on sheer volume (4 vs 5), but Friday has the pick of the comedy show crowd. Your call.
