The winter months can be tricky for lots of people. The sun isn\u2019t rising until after 8am and sets soon after 4pm, meaning that only a lucky few actually get to be outside in the daylight. And even if you do manage to go for a walk on your lunch break, the chances are the weather will be clouded over with a veil of light drizzle, rather than letting you bask in dazzling sunshine.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking for ways to cheer up your evenings, or to embrace the long nights, we think we\u2019ve found a solution \u2014 candlelight concerts.<\/p>\n

These concerts are a great way to experience you favourite music in, well, a different light. Not only does the candlelight allow you to focus on the sound away from any distractions (phones are strictly banned at most events), but it also lets you appreciate the atmosphere only the early evenings can provide.<\/p>\n

Many of these concerts also take place in unique setting, adding to the ambiance. Whether it\u2019s in a church, cathedral or something more unusual like outside in some gardens (wrap up warm for that one) these concerts are a way to experience your music away from the formality of concert halls.<\/p>\n

So, whether you\u2019re a fan of classical string music or pop tunes are more your taste, there\u2019s a candlelight concert to suit everyone. Here is our list of the best ones taking place across the UK this year.<\/p>\n
