About this event

The Candlelight series lands at Wellington Cathedral of St Paul, this time working through the songbooks of Ed Sheeran and Coldplay by candlelight.

To be clear, neither Sheeran nor Coldplay perform here. This is a tribute set played by a string quartet, not affiliated with either artist. The programme runs about 60 minutes, covering the likes of Clocks, Fix You, Perfect and Photograph.

Doors open half an hour before, with no entry once it starts. Seating is assigned first come, first served within each zone, so turning up early is worth your while.
