A NOTE FROM OUR FOUNDER
Making Oxford a city where strangers become neighbours.
I've run candlelight concerts across the UK, and I've spent the last year hosting mixers for Oxford's engineers and founders. The music always filled the room. The conversations afterwards were what people remembered.
Mela is the South Asian word for a gathering. A wick holds the flame. Melawick is both: one candlelit night at a time.

GOOD TO KNOW
Before you come.
Are the candles real?
They're flameless LED candles, hundreds of them. Safe for historic buildings, and just as beautiful.
Where is it, and is it accessible?
Greyfriars, Iffley Road, Oxford. Step-free access details coming soon. Under-16s must be accompanied by an adult. The Mela is 18+.
What happens at the Mela?
For thirty minutes after the music we serve a free non-alcoholic drink and help you meet people. Stay for all of it, or slip away.
Can I get a refund?
Tickets can be transferred to a friend up to 48 hours before. Full refund policy coming soon.
The people are the light.
