Slessor Gardens and Discovery Walk: The city’s past and future are celebrated at this waterfront green space

By Richard Rooney

Slessor Gardens is a green space at the waterfront that can be used for a variety of different purposes.

Slessor Gardens is quickly becoming a popular venue for pop stars such as Little Mix, Olly Murs and, soon, Rita Ora.

The open green space can be used for multiple events and is a great spot to enjoy the city’s waterfront.

Slessor Gardens as a new venue for large-scale concerts.

Discovery Walk at Slessor Gardens is a relaxed and informative space which shows what Dundee has offered to the world.

Plaques recognise the city’s most influential figures such as biologist D’Arcy Thompson and philanthropist Mary Ann Baxter.
