🎂 July 2026 GOTM Winners 🇺🇸
This month, the theme was “Freedom & Fun“, and you all celebrated in style! Between patriotic tributes for Independence Day and creative nods to Munzee’s 15th Birthday, the gardens this month were packed with festive designs that perfectly captured the spirit of July.
Don’t forget — the CuppaZee Gardens Tool is your go-to resource for dreaming up your own designs or finding the perfect spot to deploy! Whether you’re planning your next masterpiece or gathering friends to help bring it to life, it’s the perfect place to start.
Without further ado, let’s celebrate the winners for July:
🎂 Birthday Cake – 15 Years of Munzee designed by HoustonTxDave in Jersey Village, TX, US
What better way to celebrate July than with a birthday cake honoring 15 Years of Munzee? Complete with colorful balloons, glowing candles, and plenty of frosting, this festive design perfectly captured the spirit of our anniversary month. We especially love how the different Virtual colors create the cake’s layers and decorations, while the surrounding balloons make the whole garden feel like a true birthday celebration. It’s a sweet tribute to fifteen incredible years of Munzee adventures!
- This garden also has its own special Garden Badge! Thanks to HoustonTxDave for sponsoring it, anyone who has captured, or goes on to capture, every Munzee in the garden can earn the badge and save this celebratory design as part of their collection.
🇺🇸 America us designed by geomatrix in St. Paul, MN, US
Nothing says Freedom & Fun quite like the Stars and Stripes! This bold American flag is instantly recognizable, with the red, white, and blue Virtuals creating a crisp, colorful design. We also love the creative variety of types used throughout the stars and stripes, while the decorative border gives the entire flag a polished frame. It’s a fitting patriotic tribute for July’s Independence Day-inspired theme!
- This garden does not have a Garden Badge just yet, but any player can sponsor one for 750 Zeds! Once sponsored, players who capture every Munzee in the garden will be able to earn a badge commemorating their achievement and preserve the garden design in their collection.
