Destination Docklands was an event consisting of two concerts by musician Jean Michel Jarre on the Royal Victoria Docks, Docklands, London on Saturday, October 8 and Sunday, October 9, 1988, to coincide with the release of Jarre's new album Revolutions.[1] The concerts were attended by 100,000 people and the October 8 show was broadcast on BBC Radio One.
Accompanied by heavy wind, rain and fireworks, the concert also featured The Shadows guitarist Hank Marvin who joined Jarre on the tracks "London Kid" and "Fourth Rendez-Vous". A live album and a VHS were released afterwards, in 1989.
