With more than 800 hectares of history, art and nature, Chapultepec Forest is not only the largest urban park in America, but also a cultural center of enormous relevance for CDMX. Inside are some of the most important museums in the country, historical monuments and natural scenery full of symbolism. Now, this majestic space will host for the first time Candlelight Open Air, the open-air edition of Candlelight, which will pay tribute to Frank Sinatra and the eternal composers in Spanish with different candlelight concerts.
Candlelight in Chapultepec: this is what an iconic venue sounds like
If there are songs that deserve to be listened to by candlelight, it is those that have marked (and will continue to mark) entire generations. That’s why Candlelight comes to Chapultepec Forest with a double tribute: one to Frank Sinatra —the eternal Ol’ Blue Eyes who became one of the most influential artists of the 20th century— and another to the great Spanish composers, such as Chico Navarro, Rubén Blades or Joan Sebastian.
One night, two concerts and thousands of candles creating an unusual landscape. In the middle of it, the Tenoch Niño de Rivera Jazz Quintet will take the stage with his piano, saxophone, drums, double bass and voice, and will reinterpret your favorite songs in an unrepeatable evening of live music and lit nature.
Seeing the Chapultepec Forest illuminated by thousands of candles is not something that happens every day. And if you also hear Frank Sinatra, José Alfredo Jiménez or Chico Novarro, things get even better. These Candlelight Open Air concerts have all the ingredients to be unforgettable: a high stage, a very complete repertoire and a staging that also awaits you at these other Candlelight locations in CDMX.
