Jimmy Carr Live in Durban
Author: Shelley
Durban has recently joined the ranks of cultural hotspots hosting Candlelight Concerts – an immersive live music experience famed globally for its warm glow and intimate ambiance. Fans of classical and contemporary music alike are gathering in elegant settings bathed in flickering “candles” (actually safe LED-style lighting), creating magical evenings that linger in memory.
Venues:
-
The Playhouse Company in central Durban offers a grand, historic setting—its ornate architecture and superb acoustics elevate performances like Vivaldi’s Four Seasons and Hans Zimmer-inspired compilations.
-
The Oyster Box Hotel in Umhlanga Rocks provides an intimate, colonial-era charm. Its gracious interiors set the stage for impactful tributes to Coldplay, Queen, Phil Collins, Adele, and more.

I would love to see Jimmy live! I stood behind him in Starbucks one day, in London and was too chicken to say hello…so I grinned cheesily as he excited with his tall skinny latte;/
Plus my hubby and I love comedy, especially Jimmy Carr, and its both our birthdays in March. His 30th and my 29th! This would be an awesome gift:> Proudly, your fellow Durbanite:)
