The Centre for Real Estate Studies (CRES), Department of Estate Management and Valuation, University of Sri Jayewardenepura, has launched the Anuradhapura Logo Competition 2026, organized in line with the Anuradhapura City Branding Project.

The competition invites creative minds from across Sri Lanka to develop an original and distinctive logo that captures the unique identity of Anuradhapura. As a city of living heritage, spiritual significance, cultural richness, and timeless inspiration, Anuradhapura holds a distinctive place in Sri Lanka’s history and tourism landscape. The competition provides an opportunity for participants to translate these qualities into a meaningful visual identity for the city.

The proposed logo is expected to reflect key dimensions of Anuradhapura, including its heritage, culture, spirituality, and tourism potential, while contributing to the broader vision of positioning the city as a distinctive destination and strengthening its recognition locally and internationally.

Open to any Sri Lankan with a creative idea, the competition provides a platform for participants to showcase their creativity, contribute to the promotion and branding of Anuradhapura, and potentially see their design represent the city in future official branding and tourism promotion initiatives.

Participants are required to submit an original and creative logo design through the designated online submission process. The deadline for submissions is 28th August 2026.
