MOLINE, ILLINOIS (November 5, 2025) — This holiday season, Candlelight®, the globally acclaimed series of live concerts presented by Fever, will transform First Congregational Church of Moline with thousands of flickering candles to host an unforgettable performance featuring classic Christmas carols and timeless holiday melodies, performed by a talented local string quartet.

As part of its festive offering, Candlelight also invites audiences to give the gift of music.

In addition, select Candlelight concerts worldwide will be available at special discounted rates during Black Friday and Cyber Monday, making it the perfect moment to treat friends and family to a unique live experience.

Candlelight® was created with the aim of making music more accessible by bringing it to unique venues beyond traditional concert halls, offering audiences a visually stunning and intimate experience.
