The haunted ballroom at Cedar Point is located above the arcade on the main midway, which is used occasionally by the park or rented out for Proms. Spectral music is often heard there, and ghostly dancers are seen.

During our trip there on May 25, 2008 we did not see anything out of the ordinary but we did get some good pictures!

Here is the ballroom for the midway.  If you have been to Cedar Point you may have been to the arcade below.

The Inside

Take one step in the 1906 Coliseum at Cedar Point, boasting an enormous ballroom on the top level, and you’ll feel like you’re in the middle of the golden age of ballroom dancing and Big Bands.

In the 1930s, the ballroom saved Cedar Point from folding (as many parks did during this era) during the Great Depression with nightly performances by Big Bands such as Woody Herman, Guy Lombardo, Benny Goodman and Blue Barron.

Today, it stands with a quiet grace and splendor as one of only a few remaining amusement park ballrooms.

Lots of chairs and tables in here.

Looking to the back you see some tables and chairs and a sign for the restrooms.

Looking to the back from on the stage!

If you have any stories to tell of a personal experience at the ballroom feel free to send me an e-mail!
