Can you provide a wheelchair?YES For individuals who have limited mobility, we can provide a wheelchair to transport guests from our main lobby to their orchestra seat. Upon arriving at the Beacon Theatre, please ask a Guest Relations representative for assistance. Please be aware that our staff will not remain with the patron during the event, nor will they allow the guest to remain in the wheelchair for the duration of the event.

What is the temperature in the Beacon Theatre?For most events, the average temperature inside the Beacon ranges between 68 and 72 degrees.

The artist may also ask us to adjust the temperature to their liking so that they are more comfortable for their performance. In the event of bad weather, how can I find out if an event is still taking place?The Beacon Theatre rarely cancels or postpones an event due to inclement weather.

I am not disabled and didn't request ADA wheelchair seating?Please note that unsold ADA wheelchair and transfer ticket locations are released to the general public for sale at some point. These tickets will read "ADULT" on the top and our theatre seat will remain in place. When an ADA ticket is sold to a wheelchair user who will remain in his/her own wheelchair, the ticket will read "WHEELCHAIR" at the top, and our theatre seat will be removed.
