It’s not just you, it seems to us too that 2025 has decided to make a sprint. Yesterday we put away the Christmas tree and now we take out the sunglasses, but in the meantime life is giving us small breaths of tranquility and joy. And when we say “life” we mean Candlelight Madrid, which returns for another season with a program full of live music, professional musicians and light. Lots of light. New concerts where we can listen to those timeless movie soundtracks or hymns of artists like Ludovico Einaudi or Coldplay in the most emblematic places of the city.
Rooms of the Ateneo de Madrid, the Círculo de Bellas Artes or the luxurious Four Seasons Hotel will be covered with the light of thousands of candles and will become musical havens where you can enjoy live concerts. A completely different way to get to know some of the most iconic places, while enjoying an unforgettable evening on the stages of Candlelight in Madrid.
