The Beacon Theatre is Hopewell’s crown jewel. This historic music venue was built in the 1920’s and continues to offer memorable concert experiences to visitors a century later. World-class acts, such as Graham Nash, The Byrds, and The Old Dominion Barn Dance have recently graced the stage at The Beacon. Located in downtown Hopewell, the Beacon is convenient to a host of lodging and dining options. Come for a show (or two) and make a day or weekend trip out of it.
