The Candlelight series is coming to the full-scale replica of Athen’s original Parthenon for an enchanting Candlelight Valentine’s Day special. Celebrate the day of love underneath the 42-foot statue of Athena inside the magnificent Parthenon in Nashville. This venue gives all the passionate feels associated with star-crossed lovers, ancient tragedies, and everlasting love.
Thousands of candles will be aglow as a talented string quartet takes to the stage to perform timeless melodies from classic films, operas, and more. You’ll be revisiting the tales of characters played by Audrey Hepburn (Breakfast at Tiffany’s), Kate Winslet (Titanic), Leonardo DiCaprio (Romeo and Juliet), and more. “Oh, dream maker, you heartbreaker,” you’ll be crossing Valentine’s Day in style this year.
Candlelight: Valentine’s Day Special ft. “Romeo and Juliet” and More
Valentine’s Day—generally speaking, a day of the year that calls for oversized bouquets, rich chocolates, and grand gestures. Much to the dismay of most lovebirds, it is taking place on a Wednesday this February. But fear not as Candlelight has something very special in store for February 11. Get your loved-up gazes and obligatory hand-holding in early at a mesmerizing performance in Nashville.
The classically trained Listeso string quartet will be serenading every pair with takes on eternal love songs, from Henry Mancini’s “Moon River” to James Horner and Céline Dion’s “My Heart Will Go On.” Savor every lingering note and moving strum as you sit surrounded by countless candles at The Parthenon.
If you have yet to decide on a plan for Valentine’s Day, look no further than this one-of-a-kind concert illuminating Nashville. What’s more, with two performances taking place on the day, you can squeeze in a decadent pre or post-show dinner. Give the gift of experience this February to your significant other, and like Elizabeth Barrett Browning, they’ll be left counting the ways.
