Nuart Aberdeen 2026 lives on in more than just the memories of the thousands of people who enjoyed the street art festival last month...

The lasting legacy of the hugely-popular event - staged by Aberdeen Inspired and Aberdeen City Council - is still there to be seen on walls across the city, from jaw-dropping murals to smaller pieces just waiting to be discovered as you walk the city streets.

Nuart Aberdeen has now released official photos of the finished works by the acclaimed artists who took part in Scotland’s national street art festival.

Here are a few of those images to bring back memories of this year’s festival and whet your appetite for going out to discover them for yourself – along with previous Nuart murals and the many other attractions of the city centre.

Our fantastic Nuart Aberdeen walking tours will run at 2pm every Sunday until the end of summer. You can find details, including how to book your place, at the Aberdeen Inspired website.
