Before Disney Hall and Segerstrom Hall, Ambassador Auditorium in Pasadena was renowned as one of the premier concert halls in Southern California.
The 1,262-seat glass-and-concrete structure, surrounded by an elegant reflecting pool, opened in 1974. The Ambassador Auditorium held its last performance on May 17, 1996, before going dormant. The venue reopened in December of 2004 but is now owned by Harvest Rock Church, a nondenominational Christian congregation that draws about 1,000 worshipers each Sunday.
