A CITY OF PIONEERS
THE NEXT CHAPTER.
The 21st century is where everything changes for Dundee. The city is going through quite an extraordinary regeneration and a city adapting to the future but keeping it's past alive. Once a city which gained it's wealth from industrial is now heading towards a more greener future. Dundee will soon be home to Eden Project Scotland which is due to open by 2025 at the latest.
Dundee has been recently named as one of the cities of the future by Cognizant and there is no surprise why, the past ten years have been some of the most dramatic and exciting times in Dundee. The waterfront has been completely renovated with the addition of the £80m V&A Dundee, Scotland's first design museum.
This is the most exciting time in Dundee's history. The eyes of the world are starting to see that Dundee means business. The city has been overlooked time and time again, and now is the time that we show others what a small city like ours can achieve!
Dundee Culture was created in 2013 to help make Dundee's voice heard and showcase the city to the world. Created by Andrew Batchelor at the age of 12, it has become one of the largest brands in Dundee, promoting news, features, photos and much more!
