Thank you for coming to have a look...


The Reflections competition has closed now, and we have had nearly 600 diverse entries, in turns colourful, dramatic, moody, playful, wistful, abstract and iconic. We are just about to kick off the judging process, where our judges will select 20 images in both the mobile and the main categories, before the public chooses its favourite. 

Our main competition entries will be displayed in venues around the Dock, including Gusto, Blue Bar, Revolution, Vinea, Pan Am and What's Cooking?, from mid-September, for you to come down and have a look and choose your favourite. Voting will be available on the blog and by text and email, with the grand winner projected onto the front of the dock this winter. And mobile images will be displayed on our Facebook page, and you will be able to vote by email.

Keep an eye on the blog and our Facebook page (The Albert Dock) for more information about the exhibition, shortlist and winners. We will keep you updated...
