12 and 15 Passenger Vans For Rent and Radio City Music Hall

Radio City Music Hall is one of the world's largest indoor music venues, located in the Rockefeller Center in Midtown Manhattan. It is very easy to get to with your Van Rental in New York City or by subway. It is best-known for the Radio City Christmas Spectacular and the women's precision dance team, The Rockettes. The name Radio City comes from one of the first tenants in the Rockefeller Center, the Radio Corporation of America. The theater showed both movies and stage shows for much of its history. However in the 1970s it became more difficult for Radio City to get exclusive showings and they preferred to show only G-rated films. Regular films ended in 1979, although there are still occasional screenings that you may be able to catch with your Van Rental in New York City.

Today the Music Hall hosts regular live shows such as the Daytime Emmy Awards, the Tony Awards, and the MTV Video Music Awards. With so much going on at Radio City Music Hall, you will want to be sure to check it out with your Van Rental in New York City.

The interior of the theater was designed by Donald Deskey. It incorporates glass, aluminum, chrome, and geometry. Instead of the Rococo style that was popular at the time the theater was built, Deskey instead choose an art deco style. With 5933 seats, it was the largest indoor theater in the world when it opened. The Great Stage is 66.5 feet deep and 144 wide, designed to resemble a setting sun. The elevator system was so advanced at the time that the Navy used some of the hydraulics in World War Two aircraft. It is very interesting to see when you come with your Van Rental in New York City. There is also a huge pipe organ, the Mighty Wurlitzer, the largest one built for a movie theater. It was built to be a concert instrument, capable of playing many styles of music. There are 4410 pipes in chambers on both sides of the arch. A restoration was done in 1999 when the theater was restored.
