Candlelight Celtic

Candlelight Celtic is coming to the Batavia Fine Arts Centre for an unforgettable evening of Irish music, storytelling, and atmosphere.

Created by 2009 World Champion of Irish Dance Scott Doherty and internationally touring Irish musician Chris Smith, this intimate concert brings the timeless melodies of Ireland to life in a setting unlike anything you’ve experienced.

As you enter the theatre, you’ll be surrounded by the soft glow of more than 1,000 flickering candles, transforming the bfac into a warm and enchanting space. In this golden light, the rich sounds of traditional Irish instruments and soaring vocals fill the room, carrying audiences through beloved songs, lively tunes, and heartfelt stories from Ireland’s musical heritage.

It’s more than a concert—it’s an experience. For one evening, the Batavia Fine Arts Centre becomes a candlelit gathering place where music, warmth, and Irish spirit come together.

Come settle in, soak in the glow, and let the magic of Candlelight Celtic transport you.
