How to Light a Beacon in Minecraft

Ever wondered how to make that shiny beam of light shoot up into the sky in Minecraft? You’re in the right place!

Let’s dig into the sparkling world of beacons in Minecraft and how to light them up. It’s simpler than you think, and soon, you’ll be lighting up your Minecraft world like a pro.

Quick Answer: Lighting a Beacon

To light a beacon in Minecraft, first, you need a beacon (obviously) and at least 9 blocks of iron, gold, emerald, or diamond to create a pyramid base. Place the beacon on top of the central block of the pyramid. Then, open the beacon’s menu, feed it a gem, pick a power, and voilà, your beacon lights up!

Think of it as powering up a fancy lamp with some precious materials. The bigger your pyramid (you can stack up to 4 levels), the more powers you unlock. Remember, the beacon beam shoots straight up into the sky, creating a landmark visible from far away.
