Terrace Ballroom

Terrace Ballroom

The Terrace Ballroom was a ballroom located on 464 South Main Street in Salt Lake City, Utah. During the 1930s, when it was called "Coconut Grove", there was no larger ballroom in the United States. Its name was originally changed in the 1940s to "Rainbow Rendezvous" before it settled in the 1950s to "Terrace Ballroom".

The venue was closed in 1981 and demolished. The site is now occupied by a parking lot. [http://www.ledzeppelin-database.com/geekbaseweb/forumpage.aspx?g=posts&t=27 Venue information and background] ]
