The Beacon will reopen in November 2023 following its extensive transformation programme, which is now close to completion.
The flagship venue will be one of the best and most accessible performance and music education venues in Europe, with two international standard performance venues, a restaurant and bar, and its historic cellars being used for the first time as education and performance spaces.
Bristol Beacon will have the highest possible accessibility rating, including flat wheelchair access across the venue and onto the stage, accessible toilets, hearing systems, and trained specialised staff.
Rosa Corbishley, Bristol Beacon’s director of development, said: “We are delighted to be partnering with local hotels to give music lovers the opportunity to not only come to Bristol to experience world-class concerts and shows at our transformed venue, but also to immerse themselves in everything else our amazing city has to offer.
