## What is Beacon Circle?

Find things to do nearby. Meet people around shared plans.

Beacon shows you live local activities, nearby events, and spontaneous meetups while they are still happening.

Beacon is a local social app for finding things to do, meeting people nearby, and joining live plans around you.
Looking for nearby activities, local events, meetups, hangouts, or weekend plans? Beacon helps you discover real moments happening now instead of scrolling through old posts.
Built for local discovery in Bangalore and Bengaluru, Beacon makes it easier to turn “What should we do?” into an actual plan.
