The Crystal Ballroom boasts over a century of national acclaim as a premier venue for live music, dancing, and unforgettable moments. This historic hall has witnessed the blossoming of first loves, police raids, visits from silent film stars and Beat poets, as well as psychedelic light shows and narrow escapes from disaster. Now listed on the National Register of Historic Places, it thrives under McMenamins ownership, hosting a diverse lineup from rock and country to hip-hop and big band swing. Its spring-loaded dance floor and tall windows enhance the experience, complemented by house-brewed beer.
