The Beacon

Everyone’s welcome at The Beacon – our very own touring venue.

Spring – Summer 2025.

We’re taking Bradford 2025 on the road in our custom-made touring venue.

The Beacon is a venue like no other – a stunning performance space that will be touring the district during Bradford 2025. This super-versatile venue can be built and rebuilt anywhere – and next year, we’re taking it for month-long stays in Wibsey Park, Bowling Park, Cliffe Castle Park and Lister Park.

We’re working with the people of Bradford to create bespoke programmes in each location. There’ll be headline acts: music, comedy and much more. There’ll be weekday shows and weekend festivals. But there’ll also be clubs, classes, family activities, neighbourhood get-togethers… you name it.

Everyone’s welcome at The Beacon – and (almost) anything goes.

During 2025, The Beacon will be visiting
