Shrine Auditorium - Voyager, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31) |
 | | It was destroyed by a fire on January 11, 1920 and subsequently rebuilt; the new auditorium, the current Shrine Auditorium, opened in 1926. |
| | In 2002, the Auditorium underwent a $15 million renovation that upgraded the auditorium's stage with state-of-the-art lighting and rigging systems, and included new roofing and air conditioning for both the Auditorium and Expo Center, modernized concession stands, additional restrooms, repainting of the Expo Center, and a new performance plaza and parking garage. |
| | In fact, the Auditorium is still the site of the AMAs and the Emmys, hosted most Oscar ceremonies from the mid-1980s until Kodak Theater opened, and was the site of the Grammy ceremonies held in Los Angeles until the completion of Staples Center, which has since 2000 hosted 5 Hollywood Grammys (most recently in 2005). |
