Convention Hall
The site of the Miss America Pageant
was the largest auditorium in the world without interior roof posts
or pillars when it opened in 1929. If there's not an event going on,
take a look at the superb interior of the main hall, and the 33,112
pipe organ, the largest of its kind in the world. The pageant began
in 1921 and each year Miss America contestants line up for publicity
shots amid the columns by the Convention Hall's entrance. College
basketball tournaments, and antique and flower shows take place at
the hall during winter months.
