Crystal Ballroom

Frommer's Review

The Crystal Ballroom first opened before 1920, and since then has seen performers ranging from early jazz musicians to James Brown, Marvin Gaye, and the Grateful Dead. The McMenamin Brothers (of local brewing fame) renovated the Crystal Ballroom several years back and refurbished its dance floor, which, due to its mechanics, feels as if it's floating. The ballroom now hosts a variety of performances and special events nearly every night of the week. Lola's Room, a smaller version of the Ballroom, is on the second floor and also has a floating dance floor. You'll find Ringlers Pub (a colorful brewpub) on the ground floor.
