You won’t want to miss this one, Victoria!
Bask in the glow of classical, pop, and rock music next to the warmth of candlelight.
This August, Fever is presenting a lineup of five unique shows in Victoria — each of the special performances will be dedicated to specific artists or composers like Vivaldi, Queen, and Taylor Swift.
The venue will depend on each show being offered, but each has been hand-selected for its beauty and ambience to ensure each audience has a magical experience.
Ticket price will also depend on the show, but they’re within the $50 to $65 range depending on the zone you choose — Zone A offers “premium visibility” and Zone B offers “great visibility.” The seats within your zone are first-come-first serve.
These shows are family friendly, however, guests must be over 8-years-old to attend.
