Bellfield Amusements park in the town of Banchory has received the green light from Aberdeenshire Council to operate for ten years.
The Scotsman reports that the decision follows an extended period of temporary approvals.
It means that the Banchory community can continue to enjoy the Bellfield Amusements park and its range of entertainment, such as a kart track, boat pond and carousel.
Councillor Eileen Dunn said: "We now have a lovely new skatepark there which will draw in people this year that have never been to Banchory before. The funfair offers smaller children the opportunity to have fun."
