Not too long before Christmas and so many cool events happening in town. I will not mention the Christmas market here, as you have probably visited several times (or at least once to sip some hot toddies).
Virgin Money Street of Lights (until 24th Dec)
This event is free, but ticketed. Reserve your free tickets here. Do not worry if you still have not got tickets and the performance you wish to attend is sold out - an extra 500 tickets are released at 9pm the evening before.
If you are into whisky, there is a special 'Whisky Enlightenment' tour at The Scotch Whisky Experience which you can attend before or after the performance (15 gbp).
