A popular street food market will be coming back to Aberdeen this summer.

Street food pop-up ‘Backyard’ was created in 2021, during the pandemic, as a way to help businesses get their dishes in front of customers.

The outdoor market was deemed as a “complete success” as it welcomed more than 40,000 people during the summer months.

Today, Codona’s Amusement Park has revealed that Backyard will be coming back to the Granite City.

Several popular Aberdeen restaurants and food vendors have confirmed their presence at the food market, which will be located at Aberdeen Beach.

Backyard will also join the Euro 2024 madness and will show the games on a 200-square-foot LED screen whilst providing the best food and drinks at the beach.
