How long does the experience last?

To ensure you enjoy safely, all our candles are LED. They perfectly recreate the flicker and warmth of a real flame but without fire, heat, or any risk to your safety.
What temperature should I expect at the concert? What clothes should I wear?
Remember that the concerts often happen in historic venues where the temperature varies with the weather. We suggest keeping this in mind when choosing your outfit to enjoy the evening in the most comfortable way.
Will there be food and drink service at Paraninfo Universidad Complutense de Madrid?
Unfortunately, there will be no food or drink available for sale at this event.

To maintain the utmost respect for the audience and musicians, leaving your seat will only be allowed if there is a real urgency.
Is taking photos or recording videos allowed? Can I use my phone during the performance?
Don't forget to silence your phone to fully immerse yourself in the atmosphere. Taking photos and videos without flash is only allowed in the concert's closing, when the musicians give the signal.
Can tickets be bought at the Paraninfo Universidad Complutense de Madrid box office?
No, we don't have a physical box office or door sales at Paraninfo Universidad Complutense de Madrid. You can only get your tickets through Fever, either by checking the official website or directly through the app.
How does seating assignment and zoning work?
We have several zones priced based on closeness and the stage view. When you enter Paraninfo Universidad Complutense de Madrid, the team will help you find your seat in order of arrival within your booked category.
Can we sit together if we're a group?
Yes, you can sit together! To ensure contiguous seats, you need to arrive together and have passes for the same zone. We recommend arriving 30 minutes early so our team can seat you together easily.
Can tickets for Candlelight Christmas: Christmas Soundtracks be gifted?
Absolutely! To gift the Candlelight experience, you can buy a Gift Card valid for any Candlelight concert in your country, allowing the recipient to choose their preferred date and concert. Alternatively, if you've already purchased a ticket for a specific date, you can use the "Transfer Tickets" option in the app to send it as a gift.

With this exclusive add-on, you'll enjoy a personalized photo session in a specially decorated area of Paraninfo Universidad Complutense de Madrid and receive an instant Polaroid-style capture as a keepsake.
Can I buy "Candlelight Photo" photos at Paraninfo Universidad Complutense de Madrid?
You can buy your photo experience at Paraninfo Universidad Complutense de Madrid if the quota hasn't been reached yet. Just remember that we don't accept cash in the venue, only card, and that online purchases have priority.
When will I receive the photo?
Pick the photo you want printed - it'll be ready for you to collect when the concert ends. Make sure to take it with you when you leave, as our team can't keep it for later.
What does the "Pack of 3 candles" include? Are they real?

What is the cancellation and refund policy?
You can change the date of your ticket up to 24 hours before the event from the "Tickets" section of the Fever app. If the option is available, the "Change date/time" button will appear, and you can follow the instructions. If the option doesn't appear, contact us with your ticket ID, which can be found in the confirmation email or the Fever app. Note that refunds are not accepted, although some events offer a flexible cancellation add-on with an alternative policy. For more information, see our Terms and Conditions.
What time should I arrive? Is there a late entry policy?
The best is to arrive 30 minutes early so you can get comfortable before the concert. Doors close 5 minutes before the show begins, and late entry is not permitted once it starts, ensuring maximum respect for all.
When should I arrive to have my photo taken?
Make sure to arrive at least 30 minutes before the concert starts so we have enough time to take your photo. Your photo will be taken before the event, and the photo session will end 10 minutes before the concert begins.
Where do I have to go to have my photo taken?
You'll be guided to the photo area right after you enter Paraninfo Universidad Complutense de Madrid. If you need help, just ask our staff, and they'll point you in the right direction.
