Candlelight: Christmas Classics
Can you smell that Christmas smell too? If you can’t smell it, you will definitely be able to hear it in this concert dedicated to those iconic Christmas songs.

Candlelight: The Lord of the Rings
The Lord of the Rings has been celebrated for its rich narrative, iconic characters and powerful themes.

If there are few things like the classics, there are even fewer things like the classics… listened to among thousands of candles.
