The ArtsQuest Center at SteelStacks
Located only a few blocks from Sands Bethlehem, this contemporary performing arts center offers dynamic music, comedy, cabaret, dance and other performances year-round. The ArtsQuest Center's Musikfest Cafe presented by Yuengling is an intimate concert venue featuring the best in rock, blues, jazz, folk and more, along with full dinner service for most shows. In addition, the performing arts center is home to the Frank Banko Alehouse Cinemas, showcasing the best in independent, documentary and foreign films, along with weekly comedy shows!
The ArtsQuest Center features a floor-to-ceiling glass wall that provides an awe-inspiring view of the towering former Bethlehem Steel blast furnaces, the iconic structures from which SteelStacks takes its name. The blast furnaces helped to produce the steel that made the Golden Gate Bridge, Chrysler Building, much of the U.S. Navy and more!
