Wondering how to light up the beacon in Minecraft? You’re in the right spot! Let’s dive into how you can light that beacon and make your Minecraft world even more magical.

So, how exactly do you light the beacon in Minecraft? It’s simpler than you might think, and this guide will walk you through every step.

Lighting Up Your Minecraft World

To light a beacon in Minecraft, you first need to build a pyramid base made from iron, gold, emerald, or diamond blocks. The size of your pyramid can be 1×1 (a single layer), 2×2, 3×3, or the grandest of all, 4×4 layers.

After you’ve built your pyramid, just place the beacon on top of the center block of the pyramid. Then, feed the beacon by right-clicking it and placing an iron ingot, gold ingot, emerald, or diamond inside. Choose the power you desire, hit the check mark, and voilà! Your beacon beams a bright light into the sky and provides you with special powers like Speed, Jump Boost, Haste, Regeneration, Resistance, or Strength.
