The Catalina Casino, an iconic landmark located in the city of Avalon, United States, is not a traditional casino but a hub of culture and entertainment. Built in 1929, this majestic structure is adorned with art deco murals and a stunning 50-foot domed ceiling that houses the world’s largest circular ballroom. The casino also hosts a classic movie theater, presenting first-run movies every night.

Visitors to the Catalina Casino can enjoy a guided walking tour that showcases the building’s rich history and architectural grandeur. They can also experience the thrill of watching a movie in the beautifully preserved, historic Avalon Theatre, which still features its original 4-manual, 16 rank pipe organ. The Catalina Casino is a must-visit for those interested in architecture, history, and unique cultural experiences.
