The Myrtle Beach of the
Past - Today!
If you are a person who
once loved to visit the Myrtle Beach Pavilion in
Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, you can experience
the same entertainment at the Nostalgia Pavilion
Park.
Come enjoy the rides for a
day with your family, or plan a birthday party
or group outing. Eat corn dogs, funnel cakes,
and pizza, and play the games at the Midway.
When you visit Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, you
won't want to miss this great park!
The old Myrtle Beach
Pavilion was located in downtown Myrtle Beach,
just a block from the ocean. The last season it
was open was 2006 before being dismantled and
demolished. Some of the rides and special
attractions were moved to the new park.
Special Features at the
Theme Park
The famous
Herschell-Spillman Carousel was relocated to the
new park. This is an ornate and spectacular
carousel with different hand-painted animals. It
is one of 15 working Herschell-Spillman
carousels in the United States. It debuted in
Myrtle Beach in 1950 and is a colorful and
impressive sight.
The magnificent Baden Band
Organ was moved to the new park as well. This
huge pipe organ was first displayed in Paris in
1900 and is still in excellent working
condition. The organ features 98 keys and 400
pipes. It is decorated with elaborately carved
figures that spin and dance to the music.
The Nostalgia Pavilion
Park is located in the heart of Broadway at the
Beach. This is a paradise for shopping, dining,
and amusements. There are more than a hundred
specialty shops, around twenty restaurants,
three hotels, and many attractions. The
attractions include The Nostalgia Pavilion Park,
Ripley's Aquarium, IMAX Theater, NASCAR
Speekpark, Broadway Cinema, boat rides,
miniature golf, and much more!

Amusement
Rides at the Park
At the
Nostalgia Pavilion Park, there are
rides for all ages. These are
pay-per-ride activities so you can
buy as many tickets as you need
without an expensive all-day fee.
This is a
great place to plan a child's
birthday party with one fee for
unlimited rides.

Several of the kiddie
rides were moved from the old Myrtle Beach
Pavilion to the new location. The Tea Cup Kiddie
Ride, The Motorcycle Kiddie Ride, The Dune Buggy
Kiddie Ride, The Pirate Ship Kiddie Ride, and
The Boat Ride are exciting classics for children
to enjoy.
The bigger rides include
the Caterpillar Ride, which is one of the few
that have canopies over the cars, The Pirate
Ship Ride, and The Wave Spinner. These rides
were all moved from the old Pavilion to the
Nostalgia Pavilion Park. You will want to visit
the blast-from-the-past gift shop and the
Pavilion Museum, where Pavilion nostalgia is the
theme. Then test your skills at the Midway games
and other activities.
Plan Your
Trip
The Nostalgia Pavilion
Park provides a great atmosphere for group
outings, where everyone can enjoy their favorite
activities. You can make reservations and even
arrange for catering for an event.
When you visit Myrtle
Beach, be sure to stop by the Nostalgia Pavilion
Park and enjoy the classic rides and fun
activities that have entertained visitors for
years. You and your family will have a wonderful
experience and memories to cherish
forever.
