About Shine A Light
Shine A Light is an annual benefit concert that has been held on the main stage at the Queen Theater in Wilmington since 2012. One of the hottest nights of the year, this fundraiser features 60-70 of the area’s best musicians performing the top hits following a fun theme that changes each year. Shine A Light is well-attended by music lovers from all over the tri-state area and has sold out every year it has been held.
Proceeds from the event directly fund music education programs for Delaware’s underserved youth. The 2023 event raised $57,938 in grant money to support music education programs at six local organizations:
- Kingswood Community Center
- Reed’s Refuge Center
- Christina Cultural Arts Center
- The Choir School of Delaware
- The Grand Opera House
- Cityfest, Inc
