Talks from TED2020 in Vancouver will be seen via the livestream at Webster Hall. When it first opened around the turn of the 20th century, Webster Hall was the home for civil rights initiatives including labor union rallies and strikes. Later, It hosted parties attended by Marcel Duchamp and F. Scott Fitzgerald (where drinks flowed openly during Prohibition) before evolving into a recording studio where Carol Channing and Elvis Presley created iconic albums. Today, Webster Hall is known primarily as a venue where acts ranging from Tina Turner to Prince to Madonna to Sonic Youth have all passed through its famed doors.
