Happy 5th Birthday Queen By Candlelight! 🎉✨🎈🕯️👑
Five years ago today, we lit the candles for the very first time and brought the music of Queen to life in a completely new way. What followed was beyond anything we imagined… A continuous 5 YEAR tour right across
the UK and the world!
First, we want to say a huge thank you! None of this would have been possible without our brilliant audiences, who continue to support what we do and welcome us to local venues and communities every single week!
