Candlelight Tribute to The Beatles in Downtown LA

Beatles songs sound different when the room is dark except for a few hundred flickering candles. That's the whole idea behind Candlelight Downtown LA: Tribute to The Beatles, which lands at Zipper Concert Hall on Sunday, October 4. If you're sorting through concerts in Los Angeles for a quieter night out, this one trades the shouting and the phone flashlights for a seated room and a lot of melody.

What it is

Candlelight is Fever's touring concert series. The company books intimate halls, fills the stage with candles, and has a small live ensemble play arrangements of a single artist's catalog. The listing for this date calls it "a live, multi-sensory musical experience" built around the music of The Beatles. Nobody is pretending to be John or Paul here. It's a tribute to the songwriting, played live, and the setlist leans on the tunes everybody already knows.

That makes it an easy pick for a date, for parents who grew up on Abbey Road, or for anyone who likes live music but not standing for three hours.

The venue

Zipper Concert Hall sits at 200 South Grand Avenue on Bunker Hill, part of the Colburn School campus. It's a mid-sized recital hall built for acoustic performance, which suits a candlelit string-and-melody show better than a rock club would. You're a block or two from The Broad and Walt Disney Concert Hall, so it's easy to fold a museum stop or dinner on Grand Avenue into the evening.

Candlelight shows tend to sell by seating zone, so the cheaper tickets usually go first. Arrive early; latecomers can end up waiting for a break between songs to be seated.

Getting there

The Metro A and E lines stop at Grand Av Arts/Bunker Hill station, a short walk from the hall. That's the easiest route if you're coming from Santa Monica, Pasadena or Long Beach. Driving works too: there's paid structure parking along Grand and Hope, though rates climb when there's a show at Disney Hall the same night.
