Tim Burton's Universe by Mystery Ensemble fills Bournemouth with an evening of atmospheric film music on 31 October 2026. Performed by candlelight, the concert takes its inspiration from Tim Burton's films, the gothic, offbeat and often tender worlds he has put on screen over the years. Landing on Halloween night, it's a fitting way to mark the date.
What to expect
Burton's films carry a darkly whimsical mood, and live music inspired by them, played under soft candlelight, plays straight into that atmosphere. The Mystery Ensemble shapes its programme around these themes, although organisers confirm the complete running order nearer the date, so check the official listing for the latest details.
Planning your visit
Bournemouth suits an evening out well, with plenty of places to eat and drink beforehand and solid transport links into the town centre. Since the venue and start time can vary, book through the event's official listing, which also lists current times, prices and ticket information.
