The Beacon operates a 1920s building in downtown Topeka at 420 SW 9th St, described on its site as 25,000 square feet with a restored theater, a speakeasy-style lounge and a grand ballroom. The site references weddings among the events it hosts. The same company, Beacon Events, also operates Great Overland Station, The Dillon House and the Oasis Mobile Bar, a vintage Airstream bar offering full-service bartending.

The website does not state guest capacity, indoor/outdoor options or weather backup, catering rules, accessibility, or lodging for The Beacon building itself. A pricing page is linked but does not display rates on the pages reviewed. Tours can be scheduled through the site, or by phone or email.

Ask for The Beacon’s ceremony and reception capacity, catering and alcohol policies, and current rental pricing.
