Featuring classic Christmas carols, this live, multi-sensory musical experience will light up Cape Town, Durban, Johannesburg, and Pretoria for an unforgettable evening
This holiday season, Candlelight®, the globally acclaimed series of live concerts presented by Fever, will illuminate South Africa with thousands of flickering candles across some of the country’s most spectacular venues.
Audiences in Cape Town, Johannesburg, Pretoria, and Durban will be treated to enchanting performances of classic Christmas carols and timeless holiday melodies, brought to life by talented local string quartets in an intimate, candlelit setting.
Each city will host these special festive concerts in remarkable locations — from the Star Theatre in Cape Town and the NH Johannesburg Sandton to the CT Hotel Pretoria — providing the perfect backdrop for an evening filled with warmth, music, and magic. In Durban, the overwhelming enthusiasm for Candlelight has already led to a sold-out show, highlighting the growing excitement for this one-of-a-kind experience.
As part of its festive offering, Candlelight also invites audiences to give the gift of music. The official Candlelight gift card is now available for purchase and can be redeemed for any event across South Africa. In addition, select Candlelight concerts worldwide will be available at special discounted rates during Black Friday and Cyber Monday, making this the perfect opportunity to surprise friends and family with a unique live experience.
Created to make music more accessible by bringing it to extraordinary spaces beyond traditional concert halls, Candlelight® offers audiences an intimate and visually stunning experience. Its wide-ranging programs pay tribute to iconic classical composers such as Vivaldi, Mozart, and Beethoven, as well as contemporary artists including Queen, Coldplay, and Ed Sheeran. The series also explores diverse genres such as jazz, soul, pop, and film soundtracks.
Additionally, Candlelight® curates special editions inspired by beloved films and series, including Bridgerton in partnership with Netflix and Shondaland, and The Wizard of Oz with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Experiences.
