Fever, the leading global live-entertainment discovery platform known for helping millions of people find the best experiences in their cities, created the Candlelight Concerts: a series of original music concerts aimed at democratizing access to classical music. This innovative format represents a unique live musical experience through a varied offer of programs to meet all tastes, played by local musicians in emblematic venues, with the space and performers illuminated by thousands of candles. 


Democratizing access to classical music and reaching new audiences


Long considered an elitist and difficult-to-access genre, classical music seemed until now not to be within everyone's reach. When launched in Madrid in 2019, Candlelight Concerts focused mainly on the greatest composers such as Vivaldi, Chopin or Beethoven. Now, the ever-growing list of programs includes a wide variety of themes and genres, including tributes to contemporary artists like Queen, ABBA, Coldplay, and Ed Sheeran, as well as shows dedicated to anime, movie soundtracks and many more. The multi-sensory experience has also evolved to feature different elements, such as ballet dancers or aerial performers, as well as other genres, such as jazz, soul, opera, flamenco and more. 


Celebrating unique venues worldwide 


Too often confined to traditional halls to a limited audience, the works of the greatest composers now resonate in unique locations that are part of each city's cultural heritage. Candlelight concerts have been performed in various sizes in all kinds of idyllic venues, spanning from modern rooftops with great views to iconic cathedrals, palaces, libraries and gardens. Some examples include the Atomium (Brussels), Tour Eiffel (Paris), Burj Al Arab Jumeirah (Dubai), Victoria Hall (Geneva), Central Hall Westminster (London), Palau de la Musica Catalana (Barcelona), Niagara Falls (Ontario), S.EA. Aquarium (Singapore), and many more in over 150 cities across America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia-Pacific. 


Creating opportunities for local talented musicians 


Candlelight Concerts works with talented local musicians who align with the belief that classical music can reach a diverse audience and demonstrate this by performing compositions for all tastes. This Fever Original experience provides a platform for musicians to connect with people from all over the world and creates new opportunities to do what they love. 


Compared to traditional classical performances where the audience sits through the whole concert with no further interaction, guests are invited to connect with the most iconic pieces of the greatest composers and listen to the top hits of well-known artists in a different way with musicians, encouraging interaction and speaking to them directly, as well as sharing information about the programming.
