Enjoy live musical tributes to popular artists like Beyonce and Radiohead while surrounded by candles at Bay Area concerts this winter and spring.
What’s more romantic than chilling with your loved one, listening to the stimulating sounds of Beyonce? What about doing so surrounded by literally hundreds of flickering candles? This luxurious experience can be yours, thanks to “Candlelight” concerts in January and beyond, which are put on by Fever, an entertainment company that caters sensorial “experiences” to fun-seeking urbanites.
The concept is simple: You sit in a grand architectural space to listen to live performances artfully lit with an ocean of candles, like what a crazy ex would do to win you back (but not as creepy). The locations range from Oakland’s Chabot Space & Science Center to San Francisco’s Grace Cathedral and the International Art Museum of America, while the musical offerings are typically stringed-instrument tributes to crowd-pleasing acts like Taylor Swift, Beyonce, Radiohead and Adele. So dress to impress and get ready for an unforgettable night with your boo – and please, try not to sneeze and kill everyone’s light.
Details: Concert dates, times and venues vary in Oakland and San Francisco. Check candlelightexperience.com for the latest details. Tickets start at $30.
