Let the songs and memories lift you beyond the rainbow this January — tickets are available now for your next magical adventure.
There’s a lasting charm to The Wizard of Oz that keeps captivating audiences year after year. It’s got it all — memorable characters like the Scarecrow and Cowardly Lion, a story that never gets old and of course that unforgettable soundtrack that guides Dorothy’s journey down the Yellow Brick Road. Now, you have the chance to experience that magic anew, as The Wizard of Oz comes to life at a classical concert in Minneapolis.
Candlelight: The Wizard of Oz – A Classical Concert
The magic of The Wizard of Oz isn’t just in its story — it’s woven into every note of its iconic soundtrack. From the cheerful march from Munchkinland with “Follow the Yellow Brick Road” to the Scarecrow’s witty performance of “If I Only Had a Brain”, these on-screen moments are made all the more memorable thanks to the songs that accompany them.
This season, Candlelight invites you to experience the wonder of Oz with a 60-minute musical journey that honors the music of the movie. Surrounded by thousands of twinkling candles, a string quartet will fill the air with classics like “Over the Rainbow” and “We’re Off to See the Wizard.” It’s a musical escape into Oz — no tornado needed — just classic songs, a touch of nostalgia and the flicker of candlelight.
Warner Bros. Discovery Global Experiences and Candlelight bring a dazzling tribute to the music from The Wizard of Oz to Minneapolis’ Westminster Presbyterian Sanctuary. Attendees are welcome to dress up in their most magical Oz-inspired fits, from ruby red slippers to emerald green attire. Get ready to be swept away to the Land of Oz with the help of countless candles and live music on strings, oh my!
The concert runs for 60 minutes, with doors opening 45 minutes ahead of the performance. Seating is first come, first served within each area, and entry after the start time isn’t allowed, so arriving early is strongly suggested.
