Classical music for all ears
Candlelight, in its beginnings, brought the most outstanding works of classical music to CDMX, and that continues to be its main goal. For that reason, it always seeks to present tributes to figures such as Vivaldi, Mozart or Tchaikovsky, among others, that manage to provoke something unique in the audience that is difficult to explain.
Not only classical music
In addition to classical music, Candlelight experiments in its varied tributes with different genres. From pop to rock, jazz to traditional Mexican music. This makes the international candlelight concert series an endless experience. No two Candlelight concerts will be the same. Queen, Taylor Swift, José Alfredo Jiménez, Bad Bunny, Michael Jackson or José José José – there’s music for every taste!
Candlelight concerts for every season
The programming is recycled with new genres, new tributes… And seasonal concerts. Whether it’s Christmas and you want to enjoy the best Christmas carols, Halloween and you feel like reliving the classics of terror, or summer and you are looking for a musical evening outdoors, there will always be a concert waiting for you.

Fun facts and fascinating anecdotes
