Candlelight® Concerts Capture Kolkata’s Soul, Announces Guwahati Debut This November

Candlelight®, the global concert series by Live Your City, found a natural home in India’s cultural capital — a city where music, poetry, and the performing arts have always been at the heart of daily life. When the series arrived, it was embraced with warmth and enthusiasm, adding a new chapter to the city’s rich artistic legacy.

In recent weeks, Candlelight® has transformed some of Kolkata’s most iconic venues into intimate spaces glowing with candlelight. Paying tribute to beloved legends like A.R. Rahman, Kishore Kumar, and Arijit Singh, these concerts offered audiences a chance to relive timeless melodies in a uniquely immersive setting. With every performance filling to capacity and standing ovations at the close, Candlelight® has quickly established itself as a natural fit in the city’s cultural landscape.

This sense of connection wasn’t lost on the people behind the series. Pranjal Begwani, Candlelight Team Lead, India, said, “Our Kolkata performances were extraordinary. Every sold-out seat, every shimmering moment reaffirmed the city’s timeless love for music and the arts. The way Kolkata embraced Candlelight® has been profoundly inspiring. Building on that experience we are thrilled to embark on our journey into the North East, beginning with Guwahati this November. We aim to not just present a global format, but to build cultural bridges where international artistry resonates with regional heritage. Kolkata has shown us how magical that fusion can be.”

Building on this resounding success, Live Your City will now carry the enchanting world of Candlelight® to Guwahati this November, extending its immersive experience to yet another city steeped in artistic traditions.
