Pasadena Civic Auditorium, Pasadena (must see)

The Pasadena Civic Auditorium, host of America's Got Talent, the Daytime Emmy Awards, and the NAACP Image Awards is one of the top performance halls in the United States. In addition to these star-studded events, the auditorium is host to cultural performances, film and TV events, graduation ceremonies, and theatrical performances.

This auditorium dates back to 1932 and still features many of the decorative elements unique to that time. One of the theater's most noteworthy features is a Moller organ, which is one of the world's largest instruments. In front of the auditorium, the plaza has become a popular place for tribute bands to play, with musical selections including 80s tributes, Elton John, and Journey.

Although the auditorium is not open for public tours, stopping for a moment to take a picture of the building is worth your time. The architecture is some of the finest in Pasadena, and you will be glad you stopped to take a look.
