Candlelight: Christmas Classics

Candlelight: Christmas Classics at The Link Auditorium

Forget the usual holiday playlist blasting through the mall. On December 18, 2026, Candlelight: Christmas Classics offers something quieter and far more memorable: Christmas music in instrumental string arrangements, performed at The Link Auditorium in St. Louis. No shouting over crowds. No shuffling through the same songs you've heard all month. Just strings, a glowing setting and a chance to hear the season in a new way.

That glow matters. The presentation pairs its music with a candlelit visual setting, so the evening feels designed for listening, not scrolling. It is a different kind of holiday outing, one that invites you to slow down at the busiest time of year. Instrumental strings let familiar seasonal sounds speak without a single lyric. You may find yourself noticing the melodies in a fresh way. It suits a date night, a night out with a friend, or a treat for the person on your list who has everything.

The 8:45 PM start makes this a late-evening plan, a soft landing after a full December day. Picture it: you leave the to-do list behind, head to The Link Auditorium, and let the music set the mood for the night. This is a Candlelight presentation, so expect an atmosphere built around the music itself rather than a rock show or a vocal spectacle. If you want a Christmas memory that feels calm, shared and a little bit special, this is a strong candidate. Pick your seats and make Candlelight: Christmas Classics part of your St. Louis holiday plans by checking tickets for the December 18 show.
