What To Do | Candlelight Concert at Al Wadi Desert

Picture the desert at sunset. The dunes are quiet. Then hundreds of candles light up. A violin begins to play. That’s the Candlelight Concert in Al Wadi Desert, Ras Al Khaimah.

On 27 September 2025, The Ritz-Carlton Ras Al Khaimah, Al Wadi Desert will host two concerts:

   •   Vivaldi’s Four Seasons & More at 7 PM.

   •   Queen vs. ABBA at 9 PM.

The desert becomes the stage. The dunes act like walls of an open theater. The candles glow across the sand. It feels private, almost secret.

Why It’s Special

This isn’t a regular concert. The desert changes the way the music feels.

   •   Nature around you – the silence makes each note sharper.

   •   The Ritz setting – you can pair music with fine dining or a villa stay.

   •   Music for all – whether you love classical or pop, there’s something for you.

The Ras Al Khaimah Culture

Ras Al Khaimah isn’t only about hikes and beaches; it has a deep culture too. You can wander the mud‑brick lanes of the Al Jazeera  Al Hamra pearling village, climb Dhayah Fort, enjoy art and films at the Ras Al Khaimah Fine Arts Festival, and watch traditional Bedouin dances and Taghrouda poetry.

Candlelight concerts are the latest addition to the emirate’s cultural scene, further elevating its experiential offering.

An Unforgettable Experience

You won’t see a concert in a place like this often. It’s not just music - it’s a memory you’ll take with you. Experience an unforgettable moment and Ras Al Khaimah’s new wave of culture.
