2026 Beautiful Scotland judges visit Dundee

Dundee Keep Scotland Beautiful Flowers Science Centre Cllr Lynne Short

Beautiful Scotland judges have visited the city as part of Bonnie Dundee’s entry to this year’s awards.

Administered by Keep Scotland Beautiful, a member of the Royal Horticultural Society’s (RHS) Bloom Federation, Beautiful Scotland celebrates and supports the achievements of communities who come together to make positive and lasting improvements to their city, town or village.

Bonnie Dundee is a partnership of many groups and organisations who have taken forward Dundee’s entry in the City category of 2026 Beautiful Scotland.

The city’s network includes community groups, organisations, the Council, businesses, schools and individuals who are collectively making the city greener, cleaner, brighter and healthier.

Climate, Net Zero & Environment Convener Cllr Lynne Short said: “Dundee has a great amount of dedicated and committed volunteers working alongside Council employees to improve the city’s environment, encouraging others to get involved and showcasing the city in its best light.

“I want to congratulate everyone involved on their hard work. Our city is all the better for them and their continued efforts which they carry out tirelessly.

“I wish Bonnie Dundee’s entry in this year’s Beautiful Scotland awards every success.”

The Beautiful Scotland judges visited Dundee for a four-hour tour to get first-hand insight into Bonnie Dundee’s latest achievements.

Some of the winners from Beautiful Scotland 2026 will go on to represent Scotland in the UK-wide RHS Britain in Bloom Finals.
