Wishing Well at Covent Garden

A Christmas Wishing Well at Covent Garden is part of the entertainment of Christmas Delight taking place in and around the piazza over the festive season.

Festive installation
An unusual three sided tower, the Wishing Well at Covent Garden is special Christmas treat for the people who visit the market. Created by the text company SpinVox, the unusual Wishing Well installation allows visitors to leave their Christmas wishes in the tower for everyone in Covent Garden to see.

Christmas wishes
Having been created as part of the stunning lights and festive entertainment that have taken over the area, this festive installation combines the most basic of human desires with the latest in technology. Wishes are phoned in on mobiles and the system automatically transforms them into text, which then covers the Wishing Well.

Covent Garden Piazza
A truly unique audio visual spectacle, the Wishing Well at Covent Garden will be covered with people's wishes as they are translated through the system in real time, meaning you can stand in the tower and phone through your wish, only to see it appear on the walls in front of you. Whether you want to wish for an extra special Christmas or something more profound, the tower is the place to declare your inner most desires to the world.

Wish for what you want
Visitors to Covent Garden are invited to be as creative as they like with their wishes. Helping transform the tower into a text covered light installation, you can wish for whatever you want. From the childish to the personal, the politcal or bizarre, there will be all kinds of wishes made plain over the Christmas period. Whether they come true or not, of course, is a different matter.

The Wishing Well at Covent Garden is open from 10am - 11pm from Friday 12th December 2008 - Monday 5th January 2009. You can create a wish by phoning 020 7818 0880; calls will be charged at a local rate.
