“M” is for Myrtle Beach Pavilion. Until its closing in 2006 the Myrtle Beach Pavilion was located at 812 North Ocean Boulevard in the heart of Myrtle Beach. The Myrtle Beach Pavilion Amusement Park’s eleven acres of roller coasters, thrill rides, go-cart tracks, water rides, attractions, arcades, shops, and games were a tradition for seaside visitors for generations. The original pavilion was a wooden structure built in 1901. Owned and operated by Myrtle Beach Farms Company (later Burroughs & Chapin Company) this structure was replaced in 1923 with an immense new pavilion. That pavilion burned in 1944, and a concrete pavilion and amusement rides park reopened in 1949 just north of the old pavilion’s location. One of the most notable features of the Myrtle Beach Pavilion was the hand-carved 1912 Herschell-Spillman carousel.
