Yes, you are not the only one, we are also practicing out loud “We want Halloween”. Marigold flowers, pumpkins, cobwebs decorating the whole house… The Day of the Dead is approaching, and with it the celebrations of both festivities, either participating in the mythical costume contests, or living an evening of pure music and terror (the good kind) with the Candlelight Halloween concerts in CDMX.
Candlelight: Celebrating Day of the Dead
Listen to La Llorona as if it were the first time, let yourself be terrified by the mythical melody of Tubular Bells in The Exorcist or try not to get up to dance to Michael Jackson’s Thriller in a night full of spooky hits. From movie soundtracks to unforgettable tunes, fear has never sounded so good.
A professional string quartet will join the lights and shadows of thousands of candles, making every note the perfect blend of terror and “I don’t want it to end”.
And if that wasn’t enough…
The terrifying (in the good sense of the word) does not stay “only” in a concert. For those who need to celebrate Halloween a little before the 31st, Candlelight: Classics of Terror transports us to the best scary movies through their soundtracks. The Conjuring, Nightmare on Hell Street, The Exorcist… sounds of cinema that have become timeless and that we can now listen to in this tribute at the Gothic Chapel of the Hellenic Cultural Institute.
Candlelight Halloween at El Cantoral
Going to the Centro Cultural Roberto Cantoral is always a yes. But doing it with Candlelight, surrounded by thousands of points of light, with a live music quartet and listening to your favorite horror songs is an “Evidently yes”. For one night, the modern architecture and exceptional acoustics of the auditorium come together creating a unique sense of music and mystery for 60 minutes.
Doors open 30 to 45 minutes before the concert, a perfect time to enjoy the magical atmosphere before the Stranger Things or Ghostbusters soundtrack starts playing and you can’t take your eyes off the stage. One of the most special plans for Halloween in Mexico City.
