The Hollywood Palace was an hour-long television variety show that was broadcast weekly (generally on Saturday night) on ABC from January 4, 1964 to February 7, 1970. It began as a mid-season replacement for the short-lived Jerry Lewis Show, another variety show which had lasted only three months. It was staged in Hollywood at the former Hollywood Playhouse on Vine Street, which was renamed The Hollywood Palace during the show’s duration and is today known as Avalon Hollywood. A little-known starlet named Raquel Welch was cast during the first season as the “Billboard Girl”, who put the names of the acts on a placard (similar to that of a vaudeville house).
