Awww the memories that was made there. They’re never be another like it. I remember some of the 67 one. Now the 70’s was a blast! The days of the mind scrambler and the rainbow.

Gosh that brings back memories. When I was a kid back in the 80's l loved going to the Pavillion. One thing I remember most was the world's heaviest twins that worked as barkers in front of Ripley's. If you run across any footage of that i would luv to see it.

1963 was the first year our family went to the Pavilion/Myrtle Beach. I was 9 sister 6. The Putt-Putt was there I believe till 68. (We went every year). The attraction in 64 and 6t was the go carts that was next to the Putt Putt. Arcade across the street. 68 I believe was the first year for the larger Rollercoaster a little further up the road. Many memories, I could go on and on. 1967 may have also been the first year of the space needle. That was fun. Used to be right next to Mother Fletchers. We stayed at the Continental Motor Inn right in that area. Thanks for the video.

B&C, owners of the Pavillion begged the city council and Mayor to revitalize the downtrodden area that the Pavillion sat it. Sadly, they were ignored as ALL the city’s focus were on the defunct Sir Force Base properties. After getting ignored a final time, B&C closed down the Pavillion and the property still sits there, as a silent protest to the better years of Downtown.

Excellent Video ! The Pavilion should have never been torn down. One thing about Myrtle Beach Landmarks are never considered sacred . Should have been just updated yearly. But never torn down ! Now all you have had for years is an open lot of nothing .

I enjoyed that little trip...just turned 70, so was about the age of one of those little blond boys in the '63 clip. I can almost feel that super-hot asphalt when my foot would slip over the edge of my rubber flip-flop, and smell the cotton-candy and other foods riding the breeze...maybe even the sound of that enchanting German pipe organ if it was having a good day...HaHa. Peace to all, Randy

In the late 1960’s, my younger brother(Steve) and I got to go to this pavilion many times to ride the rides. We also went to the rides in the Crescent Beach-Ocean Drive area regularly. I’ll always remember the mechanical monkey band in the glass case inside the O.D. Pavilion. I think it was 10 cents to make them play. I still have color 8mm film of the MB Pavilion rides from 1968 that I may try to upload sometime. Boats, Helicopters, Bumper Cars, and loads of fun in a much simpler time.

Hey guy. Let's see your films! Since you mentioned it, I think one of those tamborine monkeys was also in the MB Pavillion or across the street in the amusement park. There was the large monkey in the center, with several others on each side performing. I loved it too. Holy-Cow, as I just turned 70!

Great video but so sad that this is all gone. My kids were young back in 1999 when we were here on vacation and the Pavilion was great since you only had to pay for what ride each child wanted to go on. They had a log flume and the rollercoaster was a blast!! The place was so clean & safe. We went at night when it was not too hot to get on these rides since we were here in August. Kenney Chesney (country singer) had a great song and part of his video was shot here at the Pavalion and part of the boardwalk. The song is called "Anything But Mine" check it it out you will recognize a few sights......Thanks for these memories 🎢🎡🎠🎪🍭🍦🍿🌭

The Pavilion was the heart of Myrtle Beach, such a wonderful place like no other amusement park. At least they still have the Swamp Fox rollercoaster at Family Kingdom, but the Pavilion was a special place with some very unique rides.

Where do you think the German band organ is? I know it was at the nostalgia theme park for a few years but I have been dying to know where it is now that they have removed it.

I enjoy these old Myrtle Beach videos. Do you have any of the 1970’s-early 80’s? I was raised and still live in the Charlotte area. That was the time period I was a kid/teenager/young adult and spend so much of my time on Myrtle Beach.

What about Candy Castle? It was in Myrtle Beach in the late 70s and early 80s. The building looked like a castle, painted in pastels. They had homemade fudge and a taffy pulling machine, lots of salt water taffy and other candies.
