While “something evil’s lurking in the dark” and you might “see a sight that almost stops your heart” this October, celebrate the eerie atmosphere and embrace all its terror by immersing yourself in a Halloween-themed Candlelight performance. The Candlelight series is coming to reimagine some of the most spine-chilling music from films, tv series, and more. Find your seat at this Candlelight Halloween tribute in Columbus and allow yourself to be transported to grotesque worlds and blood-curdling on-screen moments.
The unique live music performance is coming to illuminate the Ohio Statehouse with a sea of candles. Fall under the spell of Michael Jackson’s “Thriller”, the theme from The Addams Family, and more while sitting bathed in the glow of candlelight inside the stunning Greek Revival building.
Candlelight: A Haunted Evening of Halloween Classics
There’s plenty of time for costumes, bobbing for apples, and carving the perfect pumpkin. However, this unique Candlelight concert is a must-see in Columbus for Halloween. Bring the whole family along (8 years old or older), invite friends, and share in the special event paying tribute to all things spooky. The combination of striking architecture and the warm glow of candles creates the perfect setting for a hauntingly beautiful performance.
A local string quartet will take to the stage at the Ohio Statehouse to perform classical takes on creepy hits and timeless compositions. Danny Elfman’s Beetlejuice theme, Edvard Grieg’s In the Hall of the Mountain King, Tubular Bells from The Exoricist, and more are included on the hair-raising setlist.
Get in the spirit for Halloween with this spectacular Candlelight concert. Candlelight is an experience unlike any other, and you won’t want to miss out on what is likely to be one of the most popular activities this season.
What’s more, with two performances taking place each evening lasting about 65 minutes, you can choose a concert that suits your schedule best.
Note that for the safety of our audience, all of the candlelight will be provided through flameless candles.
