Candlelit Taylor Swift in a Brooklyn Heights Church, Then Dinner on Montague Street

St. Ann & the Holy Trinity Church is a Gothic Revival landmark on Montague Street, known for its stained glass and the Peabody Memorial Organ. On Thursday, November 12, candles fill the nave for the Highline String Quartet's Taylor Swift program, with Love Story, Anti-Hero, Cruel Summer, Shake It Off and medleys from Red, Folklore, Reputation and 1989. The Fate of Ophelia and You Belong With Me are on the list too, and the run continues into February.

Doors open at 5:45 PM, 45 minutes before the 6:30 PM start, and late entry is not allowed. Seats are assigned on arrival within each ticket zone, first come first served, which rewards an early walk over. The music runs about 65 minutes and wraps around 7:35 PM. Tickets start at 34.56 dollars with fees on Fever, where other zones and availability update live. Ages 8 and up can attend, anyone under 16 needs an adult, and no food or drink is allowed inside.

After the concert, dinner is a few blocks away. Felice Montague pairs Tuscan dishes with Italian wine in an art deco room, and Heights Falafel on Henry Street is a quick, affordable stop for shawarma and falafel. For an optional last stop, Montague Street ends at the Brooklyn Heights Promenade, where the Lower Manhattan skyline and the Brooklyn Bridge are lit up after dark across the East River.
