Candlelight Concerts Return to Jeddah With Tributes to Adele & Einaudi

Candlelight Concerts, the global music series known for setting classical and modern music against a backdrop of hundreds of flickering candles, is reigniting in Jeddah this spring with a lineup that blends Western pop, minimalist piano compositions, and Arabic instrumentals.

The first event, titled ‘Best of Western & Arabic Hits’, kicks off on Thursday, April 24th at The Ritz-Carlton, Jeddah, with two performances blending Arabic and Western compositions. Showtimes are set for 7 PM and 9 PM, with tickets starting at SAR 275.

The second round takes place on Friday, May 16th at Levento Hall, beginning with ‘A Tribute to Ludovico Einaudi’ at 7 PM, followed by ‘A Tribute to Adele’ at 9 PM. The Einaudi performance will bring to life the Italian composer’s minimalist piano works, known for their use in major films and streaming series, while the Adele tribute will reinterpret the singer’s catalogue with string arrangements. Tickets for both shows begin at SAR 150.

Guests attending the Ritz-Carlton concerts can also opt into an extended evening featuring curated dining experiences. The hotel is offering a candlelight dinner service with a menu that includes Middle Eastern favourites, international main courses, and specialty desserts.
