“I Candelai“, located at 65 Via dei Candelai, in the heart of Palermo’s historic center, was born in 1996 with the aim of creating a space that is not only a meeting point for people but also a hub of ideas, a reference point, and a gathering place for anyone willing to propose and promote interesting and stimulating initiatives. The 1950s structure of the venue, with its marbles and plasters, carries great evocative power, making it a vintage venue par excellence.
The spacious ground-floor hall and the diversified spaces on the first floor have allowed the creation of a multifunctional center, suitable for exhibitions, conferences, concerts, performances, video screenings, happenings, and much more. This space is equipped with a room equipped with state-of-the-art audio-light system, a stage, and a covered outdoor area that serves as a winter garden, ideal for organizing aperitifs, brunches, private parties, and other activities.
“I Candelai” aim primarily to promote and produce a wide range of cultural and musical activities with particular attention to enhancing local resources: often, the events organized both inside the social headquarters and outside, feature internationally renowned artists alongside the best local talents of the moment.
