Candlelight Concerts Are Illuminated Unique Spaces In London

The Candlelight series is returning to stunning venues across the city of London this year. London audiences are invited to sit back and relax in an atmospheric setting while listening to talented musicians. From classical renditions of Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake to Coldplay’s greatest hits, there is something to suit everyone.

Candlelight concerts are known for their charming locations, and Candlelight in London is no different! Central Hall Westminster, St Mary’s Church, and Glazier’s Hall are among the several impressive venues hosting sensational performances this season.

Built in the early nineteenth century, St Mary’s Church has undergone several restoration projects whilst retaining its striking architecture. The 210-foot spire is hard to miss and, as a Grade I listed building, St Mary’s leaves little to be desired in terms of aesthetics. Counted among the only 2.5% of listed buildings falling under this coveted category, the church is an elegant setting for intimate Candlelight concerts.

Do you feel like attending a classical performance at a venue with sweeping views of the Thames and the city? At Glazier’s Hall, you can! The original Glazier’s Hall in Fye Foot Lane was destroyed by the Great Fire of London in 1666. After 300 years, it was rebuilt at its current Grade II listed home on the south side of London Bridge. Today, the venue offers seven unique spaces available for hire boasting stunning design features such as Georgian brick arches and a grade-listed York stone floor.

Boasting 23 different rooms and spaces, Central Hall is one of the largest events venues in central London. The event space was originally a public meeting place for the Methodist Church in 1912. Central Hall’s Grade II* listed building has seen everything from events such as Stand Up to Cancer, The Late Late Show, and the first UN public address in 1946. Central Hall’s distinctive architecture and striking features provide the ideal setting for mesmerising Candlelight concerts.

In 1905, St Saviour’s Church became Southwark Cathedral. Located in the heart of the Bankside community, the cathedral provides is an intersection for inclusivity and faith. The iconic building combines a wonderful architectural blend of medieval, Norman, and Gothic elements. This October, Candlelight presents a number of unforgettable concerts including an evening dedicated to iconic sci-fi and fantasy soundtracks that also features the dazzling Museum of the Moon installation.
