Candlelight in Helsinki has come out of the cold and into the light and warmth of the new seasons. Bursting with the magic of thousands of candles illuminated at once as classical musicians take to the stage for 60 minutes of live music, these performances are a peaceful haven all year round. With tributes to Taylor Swift, Coldplay, Imagine Dragons, and movie soundtracks that have made their mark long after the film has finished, there is a candlelit evening waiting for everyone.
Astoria Klubi is one of the breathtaking venues in Helsinki where you can catch a Candlelight concert. This grand building is iconic in the city, and provides the perfect setting for talented musicians to swoon in as audiences bathe in the warm glow of candlelight.
Keep checking back because the music doesn’t stop in Helsinki—more concerts are continually announced on a rolling basis. And for those that think a night of classical music is the perfect present for that special someone, consider the Candlelight gift card which allows them to choose the concert, time and date that suits them best.
