Slessor Gardens is Dundee's flagship outdoor concert space, a multi-functional parkland at the heart of the regenerated central waterfront beside V&A Dundee. With a capacity of roughly 1,200 to 2,500, it stages large-format open-air gigs and festivals across rock, indie and pop — past and upcoming names include The Libertines, Level 42, Five, Tom Jones, The Human League and Ocean Colour Scene, plus the multi-day Discovery Festival. A summer-season festival field rather than a year-round grassroots room, it's the city's main stage for touring headline acts.
