  • キャンドル・ビジル（英: candlelight vigil）とは、日没後に野外で、ろうそくを持参して行われる集会。周縁化された集団の受ける苦痛に対する抗議として行われる場合もあり、また、疾病・災害・虐殺やその他の惨劇によって失われた命を記念するために行われる場合もある。後者の場合、キャンドルライト・メモリアルと呼ばれることも多い。大規模なキャンドル・ビジルでは、PA機器が用いられ、演者が招かれるとともに、地元の・または全国的なメディアによって報道されることがある。 ビジルは、宗教的・霊的な目的でも行われる。クリスマス・イヴには、多くの教会で燭火礼拝が行われる。
  • 燭光集會 又稱 燭光晚會，是一種具特定主題的和平示威集體社會活動。 因為以燭光作最主要道具，多在上半夜（即傍晚起至凌晨）舉行。也因為點燃白色的洋燭及小火光的綠故，集會以記念某些節日、社會現象、歷史事件或者悼念為主題，人群聚集在球場、草地或廣場一角，晚會中有記念的目標人物及事件；為營造特定氣芬，場地多有佈景、有橫額、有主題音樂及背景音樂、主辦單位有講話，甚至喊口號等，但燭光晚會前後較少以遊行活動接續。 燭光晚會的主題又分為中秋節、元宵節、追悼會、宗教節日等類型。
