The Bing, built in 1915, is one of America’s few remaining palace-style theaters. It was renamed for hometown hero Bing Crosby; he performed skits here in between the showing of silent films. In addition to a varied roster from comedy to music, it also hosts the Bing Crosby Holiday Film Festival every December, which highlights some of Crosby’s best films from his storied career.
