About this event

Candlelight brings its by-candlelight string format to The Great Hall in Christchurch, this time working through the songbooks of Ed Sheeran and Coldplay. Worth being clear up front: this is a tribute programme performed by the Tres Cordes String Quartet, not the artists themselves, and it's not affiliated with either act.

The setlist runs across the familiar stuff, from Clocks and Fix You to Perfect and Shivers. It's a 60-minute set with seating assigned first come, first served within each zone. Doors open half an hour before, and there's no entry once it kicks off.
