Granite Noir is inspired by the incredible popularity of crime fiction in all its forms, by the fantastic contribution that Scottish writers make, by our love affair with Nordic Noir, on the page and on screen, and most of all inspired by Aberdeen, which is the perfect backdrop for the festival – steeped in history, atmospheric, quirky and with a strong sense of place.
Bringing you a fantastic programme of noir writing and stories in unusual places and spaces across the city, from our lively festival hub at the Lemon Tree to the Music Hall, The Anatomy Rooms at the heart of the imposing Gothic architecture of Marischal College, Aberdeen Arts Centre and the atmospheric St Nicholas Kirk. Join us to explore the darkness within and around us with fascinating authors from near and far.
DARE TO BE THERE.
