The Radford Theatre hosts the Candlelight Concert Series with a concert titled “A Tribute to Coldplay on Strings” on Saturday, August 31, 2024.

Immerse yourself in a candlelit evening inspired by one of the most successful alternative rock bands in the world. Since releasing their debut album, Parachutes, in 2000, Coldplay has continued to be experimental with their sound and redefine the musical landscape with symphonic hits.  

Whether you turn to Coldplay for easy listening or are moved by their soulful lyrics and piano-driven melodies, this Candlelight concert is ‘going back to the start’ by taking audiences on a captivating musical journey through some of the highlights from the group’s impressive discography.

Candlelight is a series of concerts that are all performed by classically-trained musicians. Solo pianists, string quartets and other musical ensembles take to the stage to envelop and enchant audiences with a rich tapestry of sound all while hundreds, sometimes thousands, of LED candles flicker and twinkle and cast light onto the walls. It’s almost as if the flameless light magically dances to the notes being played.

Gone is the production element and from behind the studio effects, your favorite songs resound as you’ve never heard them before. It’s a sight and sound to behold, and one that you’ll want to experience again and again. Candlelight concerts bring the magic of a live, multi-sensory musical experience to awe-inspiring locations like never seen before in Radford.

Must be eight years or old to attend and anyone under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult.

The concert begins at 7:00 PM and the doors open 45 minutes prior to the start time to allow audiences the opportunity to bask in the glow of candlelight and take in the atmosphere. 

Note: Late entry is not permitted.
