Candlelight: QUEEN vs. ABBA

Two legendary bands. One glowing stage. An atmosphere unlike anything Kingston has seen before.

On a magical Sunday evening on April 5th 2026, The Spire (82 Sydenham St.) will shimmer beneath the warm glow of hundreds of candles as the internationally acclaimed Listeso String Quartet brings the music of QUEEN vs. ABBA to life in a breathtaking, multi-sensory performance.

This isn’t just a concert. It’s an experience.

From the soaring drama of Bohemian Rhapsody to the disco sparkle of Dancing Queen, the program weaves together the theatrical brilliance of Queen and the irresistible pop genius of ABBA — all reimagined through lush, cinematic string arrangements. Expect goosebumps during We Are the Champions. Expect to sway to SOS. Expect to grin when those first notes of Mamma Mia fill the candlelit hall.
