Candlelight Concerts in Manchester 2025

Manchester might have a reputation for grey skies and rainy days (but that’s more of a myth than the truth). Even so, the city knows how to create something special when the clouds roll in. One of the most magical experiences hosted in our great city is the Candlelight concert series, where the soft glow of candles sets the stage for beautiful live music, turning an ordinary evening into something truly unforgettable. It’s a vibe that proves even the greyest days can be made better with the warm glow of candlelight.
