You can make a magical Christmas wish at the Royal Albert Dock this December! 📩🎄
Designed to delight families and spread Christmas cheer, the wish station will be available from 21st to 23rd December, inviting children to post their dock-related Christmas wish, with one lucky wish to be granted. 
From 1pm to 5pm, families are invited to visit the eye-catching wish station, complete with festive garlands and snowy flourishes, located outside The Nest on the inner quay. Friendly Christmas elves will be on hand to help little ones write their wishes to Santa on cards exclusively designed for the dock by local illustrator Matthew Storrow.
Whether it’s a magical shopping spree in the House of Spells or a year’s worth of pizza from Gusto, children can place their wish in a special post box and wait in anticipation until the 23rd December, when the winner will be announced on a spectacular projection on the facade of the Maritime Museum, via Dock Shorts. 🤩🎁
