Hear music by classical greats
Enjoy the incredible compositions of musical masters such as Vivaldi, Mozart and Beethoven as their music comes alive on stage. Candlelight concerts originated as a way to make classical music accessible to everyone, and honouring some of the best classical composers in history is one of the main ways to do that!
Variety of musical genres
While Candlelight focuses primarily on classical renditions, you will be able to find tributes to a variety of different artists. From Taylor Swift classics and well-known soundtracks played by a string quartet to renditions of Aretha Franklin and Amy Winehouse by a jazz band, and more, there will be something to suit everyone’s music tastes.
The musicians
Enjoy music by professional musicians who are truly dedicated to their craft. Each Candlelight concert, whether it is a tribute act or an original artist, will leave you in awe of the musical talent. From solo pianists to orchestras, every concert is a captivating experience.

Aside from hearing incredible music, artists at Candlelight often take the opportunity to engage with the audience between songs. The intimate environment creates a unique opportunity where audiences and musicians can interact over the music. You will be able to learn more about the music being played as well as about the artists on stage.
Seasonal events and performance times
Candlelight loves to celebrate some of the standout moments throughout the year. At Christmas, keep an eye out for festive tributes, and when Halloween rolls around, spooky-themed performances inspired by horror film soundtracks make their debut. Even Valentine’s Day gets a dose of romance with loved-up concerts and tender melodies.
