The NEPA PHIL's 2026-27 season features the return of the popular (Candle)LIT Festival, running October 15 through February 6, with hundreds of electric candles illuminating each performance.

Iconic classical ensemble works take center stage in two candlelit Scranton performances: Brahms' German Requiem on November 12 at Elm Park United Methodist Church, and Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto No. 5 on January 29 at St. Luke's Episcopal Church. Two (Candle)LIT Savor the Sounds events pair music with food and drink: a string quartet performance of film favorites at the Westmoreland Club in Wilkes-Barre on November 19, and a three-course holiday dinner at the Beaumont Inn in Dallas on December 13 featuring brass and vocalists.
