Jarre Live, later re-released as Destination Docklands: The London Concert, is a live album by Jean-Michel Jarre, recorded and released in 1989 on Disques Dreyfus. It was recorded during Jarre's Destination Docklands concerts of 1988, which consisted of two London concerts in England; this was the first time the docklands district of London and the river Thames became the scenery for a concert.

The album is a live rendering of previously released tracks by Jarre, with sometimes slightly new arrangements. London Kid, for instance features Hank Marvin of the Shadows on guitar. In contrast to the original concert, not all tracks are included on the live album. Équinoxe 5, for instance, was played during the show but not included on the album. Other songs, such as Industrial Revolution (or Révolution Industrielle) have been trimmed.
