A series of concerts by candlelight is coming to Sioux Falls.

The live performances are produced by global live entertainment company Fever and are performed by local musicians.

The concerts have been held in more than 100 cities worldwide and have attracted 3 million visitors, according to Fever.

The Sioux Falls events are scheduled at Laurel Ridge Barn on Oct. 6, Nov. 17 and Dec. 15. They include a  tribute to Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, Taylor Swift’s greatest hits and a holiday special featuring “The Nutcracker.”

“This expansion to the region comes on the heels of the experience’s success, having delighted audiences in more than 100 cities worldwide, including New York City, Madrid, Paris, Singapore and Sydney,” Fever said in a statement.

“The first concerts will see the Laurel Ridge Barn illuminated by thousands of candles, allowing viewers to fully immerse themselves in adapted programs … inviting a broader audience that might have never considered a classical music concert before to connect with the most iconic pieces of the greatest composers and listen to the top hits of well-known artists in a different way.”

Candlelight was conceived as a classical music series with concerts featuring works from composers such as Vivaldi, Mozart and Chopin. Now, the list of programs includes a wide variety of themes and genres, including tributes to contemporary artists like Queen, ABBA, Coldplay and Ed Sheeran, as well as shows dedicated to K-Pop, movie soundtracks and more. This multisensory experience also has evolved to feature different elements such as ballet dancers or aerial performers, as well as other genres such as jazz, soul, opera and flamenco.
