420 SW 9th St

The Beacon is a historic event venue in downtown Topeka, housed in the former Topeka Woman’s Club building. Restored to its 1920s eclectic elegance and located just down the block from the Kansas Statehouse, The Beacon spans more than 25,000 square feet across three floors. It offers multiple, character-rich spaces—including a theater for ceremonies, a speakeasy-style Founders Room lounge and a third-floor ballroom with twin balconies and city views.
