Something magical is coming to Brisbane — and fans of The Wizard of Oz won’t want to miss it. Candlelight: The Wizard of Oz – A Classical Concert is the newest addition to Fever’s popular Candlelight series, promising an evening of live classical music performed under a sea of flickering candlelight at The Princess Theatre in Woolloongabba.

Audiences will be transported through the story’s most beloved moments, from Follow the Yellow Brick Road to Somewhere Over the Rainbow, performed by talented musicians in an intimate, candlelit setting. The atmosphere is enchanting, the acoustics are superb, and the experience is unlike any traditional concert.
