 Historical theater |
423 Central Ave NW Albuquerque, NM 87102 United States +1 505 768 3522 / +1 800 659 8331 http://www.cabq.gov/kimo/ |
This architectural gem earned its unusual name when Isleta Pueblo governor, Pablo Abeita, suggested KiMo, which means "king of its kind" The theater's pueblo/deco architectural style and lavish interior murals make it a true picture palace. Built in 1927 it was one of the main stopping centers during the glory days of Route 66 (Central Avenue). Young entertainers who graced its stage included the likes of Vivian Vance, Gloria Swanson, Tom Mix and Ginger Rogers. The KiMo seats 700 comfortably with an orchestra pit for 30-40 musicians.

 America's historic mother road |
4508 17th CT Northwest New Mexico Route 66 Association Albuquerque, NM 87107 United States +1 505 344 9330 http://www.2006route66festival... |
Route 66 was commissioned in 1926 and was finished just before World War II. Only parts of the original highway still exist, but there is a great trend to restore and maintain sections of this historic road. In Albuquerque, remnants of an age gone by still cling to life on what is now Central Avenue. You will find the Route 66 Diner, the Duran Drugstore, and the newly restored KiMo Theater.

On Saturday evenings in June and July, the Civic Plaza, located in the heart of downtown Albuquerque, becomes a big street party. Live bands take the stage for a few hours of fun in the sun. This is the perfect venue to showcase the diverse cultures found in New Mexico. Groups exhibit their arts and crafts, and inexpensive food and drinks. Children's activities are planned in addition to the entertainment. Review © 2007, Wcities |
