About this event

The Candlelight series lands at the James Fairfax Theatre inside the National Gallery of Australia, with the Phoenix Collective String Quartet working through a Christmas programme by candlelight.

Expect a mix of the traditional and the pop-adjacent: Carol of the Bells and O Holy Night alongside Last Christmas, Feliz Navidad and Let It Go, plus a nod to The Nutcracker. Program's tentative and subject to change.

Runs about 60 minutes, doors 30 minutes prior, and no entry once it kicks off. Seating is first come, first served within each zone.
