The first and largest of the four Music Center venues, the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion was originally called the Memorial Pavilion and was renamed the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors in honor of Dorothy Buffum Chandler. The Pavilion has one of the largest stages in the United States and has been the site of unparalleled performances by remarkable music and dance luminaries and virtuosos. It served as home to LA Phil for decades and the site for more than 20 Academy Awards presentations (from 1969-1999). It is now home to LA Opera and Glorya Kaufman Presents Dance at The Music Center.
