Welcome to The Beacon

It will travel to four different parks, spending one month at each location.
The parks The Beacon will visit are: Wibsey Park, Bowling Park, Cliffe Castle Park, and Lister Park.

There are picnic tables outside, one with a wheelchair user space.
Entrances to The Beacon
The main entrance has ramp access and a small step. The space is then all on one level.
There is a main entrance in the centre of the building.
There also are entrances to the main space either side of the curtain, this is where you will enter for ticketed event to get your tickets scanned.
When you enter, your tickets will be scanned here if you’re attending a ticketed event.
The main space
The main space is located behind the curtain after entering The Beacon.
The main space may look different depending on the event. For example, if you’re attending a seated event, the space will be arranged with seating.
Toilets
To get to the toilets, you need to exit the building through the side door opposite the one you entered.
