Candlelight Brings a Warm, Festive Glow to South Africa

Candlelight is returning to South Africa this holiday season with a series of Christmas concerts that promise atmosphere, nostalgia and unforgettable music.

Presented by Fever, this global live-music phenomenon will illuminate Cape Town, Durban, Johannesburg and Pretoria with thousands of candles and festive performances by local string quartets.

A Seasonal Experience in Four Cities

Audiences across the country will enjoy classic Christmas carols and timeless holiday melodies performed in intimate candlelit settings. Each city will host concerts in striking venues that heighten the experience.
• Star Theatre in Cape Town
• NH Johannesburg Sandton
• CT Hotel Pretoria
• Selected venues in Durban, where demand has already led to a sold-out show

The warm glow of candlelight and the elegance of live strings create a setting designed for festive evenings with family and friends.

Why Candlelight Captivates

The concept behind Candlelight is simple. Take exceptional musicians, move them out of traditional concert halls and place them in beautiful, unexpected spaces. The result is an immersive, multi-sensory performance that feels personal and visually striking.

Programmes span a wide range of music.
• Classical favourites by Vivaldi, Mozart and Beethoven
• Tributes to modern icons such as Queen, Coldplay and Ed Sheeran
• Special themes covering film scores, jazz, soul and pop

Candlelight continues to attract audiences worldwide because it blends accessibility, ambience and top-tier musicality.

A Gift Worth Sharing

For those looking for a meaningful present this season, the Candlelight gift card is now available. It can be redeemed for any concert across South Africa and gives recipients the chance to choose their own experience.

Black Friday and Cyber Monday will also include discounted rates for selected Candlelight concerts worldwide, making this a smart time to secure seats or purchase gifts.
