Candlelight concerts in Adelaide, South Australia |
Candlelight concert tickets for string quartet concerts |

Candlelight concerts bring a quieter kind of spectacle to Adelaide, where familiar pop anthems become close-up performances for local music lovers.
At The Meeting Hall on Paul Kelly Lane, a Coldplay and Ed Sheeran tribute trades arena scale for the intimate pull of live strings.
Amicus Strings performs arrangements of Coldplay favourites including Yellow, Clocks, Fix You, The Scientist and Viva la Vida.
Ed Sheeran selections include Perfect, Photograph, Shivers, Bad Habits and Give Me Love, giving the evening both tenderness and momentum.
For Adelaide audiences, the appeal is less about impersonating pop stars and more about hearing familiar melodies breathe in a smaller room.
That shift can make a chorus feel unexpectedly personal, especially when the strings carry a song once built for stadiums.
The Meeting Hall's central location makes this an easy addition to a city outing, though visitors should plan their journey before leaving.
There is no on-site parking, while the venue is accessible by public transport and wheelchair users can access the space.
Doors open 30 minutes before the performance, and late entry is not permitted, so arriving early matters.
Once inside, seats are allocated on a first-come basis within the zone selected when purchasing tickets.
Candlelight concert tickets require advance purchase rather than a transaction at the venue, with entry details available through the booking confirmation.
Changes to dates or times may be possible up to 48 hours before the event, subject to availability.
Refunds are generally unavailable unless a flexible cancellation option was purchased, making it worth checking plans before booking.
Guests under 16 must attend with an adult, and service animals are the exception to the venue's animal restrictions.
These string quartet concerts are tributes, not performances affiliated with or endorsed by either artist. |

Good to know we need to buy tickets before going.
Yes, tickets need to be purchased in advance. They won’t be sold at the venue.
Megan O.I nearly missed that part. Saves turning up and finding out at the door.
Viva la Vida with a string quartet should be fun.
My daughter loves Photograph, so we might go together.
That sounds like a lovely outing together. Photograph is among the Ed Sheeran songs on the programme.
I wish refunds were easier if plans change.
We understand. Refunds are generally unavailable unless you’ve purchased a flexible cancellation option, so it’s worth checking your plans before booking.
First come seating makes me want to get there early.
Jo C.Especially with doors opening only half an hour before. I’d get there a bit ahead of that.
Perfect in a small room sounds like a nice night out.
Paul Kelly Lane is easy enough to reach by bus.
That’s handy to know, thanks! The Meeting Hall is accessible by public transport, and there’s no on-site parking.
I would rather hear the original songs, to be honest.
Tash R.Fair enough. I like the originals too, but hearing a different take can be fun.
Fair enough, nothing replaces the originals. This concert is more about hearing those familiar songs in a different way.
I heard strings play Clocks once and it sounded brilliant.
Clocks seems especially well suited to strings. We’re glad you’ve heard how striking that can sound live.
Samir PatelThe piano part translates so well to strings. I bet it sounded lovely.
Glad they mentioned there is no parking at the venue.
Louise M.Yes, much better to know before driving into the city.
No late entry is a bit strict, but good to know.
Fix You on strings might make me cry.
Priya S.Same here. I might need a tissue for The Scientist too.
I wonder how Shivers will sound on strings.
kim_87I’m curious too. It’s such a bouncy song, so the quartet should have fun with it.
We’re curious too! Shivers should bring a lively change of pace to the string arrangements.
The Meeting Hall sounds like a lovely spot for this.
I cant wait to hear Yellow played by Amicus Strings.
Maria G.That’s the one I’m most looking forward to as well. Such a lovely melody.
Yellow is such a lovely choice for this setting. We hope you enjoy hearing Amicus Strings’ take on it.
