The Mount Without: A Venue in the Heart of Bristol
With its stained glass windows and columned central throughway, The Mount Without is an enchanting spot for a Candlelight concert. The church turned entertainment venue has been a gathering place for hundreds of years; the tower dates back to the mid-15th Century, while the Grade II listed building underwent a complete renovation in 2016 to become the space we know and love today.
Candlelight at The Mount Without
Take yourself to the movies, the film score movies that is, and celebrate Hans Zimmer’s iconic film scores at an intimate Candlelight concert. If pop-rock is more your style, you can always enjoy an evening of “Dreams” at a tribute to Fleetwood Mac.
Experience your favourite Queen hits like never before. Be amazed as the string quartet takes the British band’s progressive music and reworks it into the classical form. “I Want To Break Free” and “We Will Rock You” are only some of the energetic anthems you’ll be hearing on the night.
As if The Mount Without couldn’t get anymore magical, imagine it bathed in the glow of hundreds of flickering candles. Candlelight is an experience unlike any other, and you won’t want to miss out. Simply sit back and savour the stunning orchestral takes on modern-day hits and the music of yesteryear.
The concerts have been met by countless 5-star reviews, and guests have called it “a creative, enchanting, and new concert experience.”
