Cain's Ballroom, Music venue in Tulsa, United States.
Cain's Ballroom is a music venue in Tulsa featuring a distinctive maple dance floor arranged in a log cabin pattern. The interior is highlighted by a silver disco ball and neon star decoration that creates an inviting space for live performances.
The building was originally constructed as a garage in 1924 and transformed into Cain's Dance Academy in 1930, becoming a center for music performances. This shift marked the start of its role as a significant venue for live music in the region.
