Poor sound quality, uncomfortable seating. Felt like attending a school production. A shame really, as the artists were probably very good. This review following attending Meatloaf by candlelight at Chester cathedral tonight. So bad that we left in the interval.

I’m sitting in Guildford Cathedral on a hard chair and no visible candles (there’s a few artificial ones right at the front and I’m some distance from the front. The cathedral is beautiful but I’m listening to an unknown pink Floyd tribute band. They’re not bad. But honestly don’t waste your money. My friend and I paid £100 for this thinking it would be an amazing candlelit experience. I love Floyd and pay less to see the best Floyd uk tribute acts and I’d be sitting in a comfortable theatre with a decent view too. I feel we’ve been conned to pay so much for something that doesn’t exist- the candlelight!

Wakefield Cathedral, Country by Candlelight- What an Absolute racket - dreadful acoustics, poor pitchy singers and dreadful band, so loud it was painful. I have never walked out early of anything - but we left this after 15 mins of tuneless din

I attended a Concerts by Candlelight event at Chester Cathedral on 7 February. The performer was excellent, but the seating was a serious issue. Our paid seats were directly behind a large structural pillar, meaning there was no view of the stage at all. This obstruction was not shown or disclosed on the seating plan at the time of booking. We paid £83 for the tickets and were forced to stand to see anything, and several other people around us were also leaving during the performance due to the same problem. I raised this with the organiser afterwards and did not receive a response. After posting my experience, I noticed many similar reviews describing undisclosed obstructed views and a lack of engagement from the company. If the service you received was not as described and complaints go unanswered, it may be worth speaking to your bank about your options, including a debit card chargeback. I wish I had known this sooner.

Paid for 'B Zone' seats at the 'Dire Straits' event at Newcastle Cathedral, but the view was so obstructed that we couldn't see the stage. Complete waste of money. AVOID!

Yeah not great. No actual real candles 🕯️ believe it or not. Uk tribute acts playing songs to backing tracks. For the price of these tickets ya’d see better in Benidorm.

I have been trying to contact this company ref my tickets which I have not got with only a week to go. I sent a request via their website (no telephone number) a week ago and still I have not had a response this is now urgent and they are not responding and now I am unable to send anything further via their website and have no other way of contacting them DO NOT USE

A beautiful and unforgettable experience. The candlelit setting inside Guildford cathedral created an incredible atmosphere, and the sound quality was outstanding. Hearing Fleetwood Mac songs in that environment gave them a whole new depth. Highly recommend Concerts by Candlelight concerts if you’re looking for something truly special.
