About Us

The Aberdeen Independent offers its readers the best mix of news, views and sport in the North east.
In only eleven years, it has been voted Scotland’s best free weekly newspaper eight times.

The Independent is delivered to tens of thousands of households across Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire from Stonehaven in the South to Peterhead and Moray in the North. In between, the Independent reaches residents in Inverurie, Ellon, Banchory and Fraserburgh while each edition has its own local stories to make sure residents read about the issues that matter to them.

The top news stories of the day, incisive opinion, local events listings, a 7 day TV guide, cinema listings, food and restaurant reviews, top adverts and leading local sport are all wrapped up in the Indy – whatever you’re looking for you’re sure to find it.

With our head office at 256 Union Street, we’re truly in the heart of the city and whatever you want you can be assured the Independent can provide it.
