Organised by Inverurie Events the animals from the Cairngorm reindeer herd delighted the gathering and a jovial Santa circled the whole crowd offering High Fives to the kids before settling in his grotto for the afternoon and which was enjoyed by both young and old.

To help entertain children there was also a stall offering hair braiding and face painting at the event which had been organised by Inverurie Business Improvement District.

The reindeer parade followed successful Christmas lights switch-on and on Friday December 16, there will be a Tractor Fun Run that will involve decorated tractors driving around the town having met up at the Garioch Heritage Centre at 7pm.

Sunday's Santa Run event was postponed due to the weather and will now be taking place on Sunday December 18.
