There’s plenty of time for carving pumpkins, wearing scary masks, and pretending to be someone or something, else this October but Candlelight Halloween Specials are only in Phoenix for the scariest season of the year. Combining the flickering light of candles and the spooky notes of scary soundtracks, these Halloween-themed concerts are set to keep you on the edge of your seat.
Listen to the likes of Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” and The Addams Family theme song while sitting in an open-air setting at Phoenix Zoo accompanied by all the ghosts and goblins lurking in the shadows. Halloween wouldn’t be the same without hearing a few spine-tingling songs.
Candlelight: A Haunted Evening of Classical Compositions
Surrounded by wildlife and nature at Phoenix Zoo, the Candlelight series will create the perfect ambiance fit for a happy Howl-oween! A talented Listeso string quartet will sit before you and perform classical renditions of music taken from horrifying films, TV series, and more.
Charles Gounod’s “Funeral March of a Marionette”, John Carpenter’s Halloween theme, Franz Schubert’s “Der Erlkönig”, and more will be reimagined at this intimate Candlelight concert in Phoenix. Let the ghoul times roll as you relive some of the most chilling moments in cinema and music history.
See what’s up our sleeve, this All Hallows’ Eve as the evening grows darker and the music becomes more thrilling. With a sudden pluck of the cello and a threatening sound from the violin, you’ll be transported to some of the most eerie, fictional worlds.
With two showtimes each evening, at 7:00 pm and 9:00 pm. Each concert will last 65 minutes and doors open 30 minutes prior to showtime.
Note that for the safety of our audience, all of the candlelight will be provided through flameless candles.
