Summer (Bash) Streets Festival

That this House welcomes the Summer (Bash) Streets Festival to Dundee as part of Scotland’s Year of Stories 2022; recognises that a schedule of free events will take place over the Festival’s ten-day run, including a Dennis and Gnash Dash Fun Run through the city centre; further recognises that as part of the Festival, a six-metre high Beanotown sign has been erected on the Law; celebrates Dundee’s proud history as the world’s capital of comics, giving us beloved comic characters such as Dennis the Menace, Desperate Dan, Oor Wullie and the Bash Street Kids; and thanks Dundee City Council, VisitScotland, Beano and DC Thomson for their work on collectively organising the Festival.
