World's Largest Rubik's Cube

A relic from the 1982 Knoxville World's Fair. A complex set of motors made it move, then it broke, then it was repaired, broke, repaired.

Not working on the day I visited. Still very cool.

The Convention center was closed even though their website said it was open. The Cube is near the northeast side of building, and you can see through the glass doors.

Due to Covid-19 the convention center was closed, but it was still a thrill to see the Rubik's Cube through the window.

The Cube has been moved across the street to the Knoxville Convention Center, because the Holiday Inn is closed for renovations right now. The Convention Center is locked because of Covid-19, but we saw the Cube through the glass doors.

[Jeanne Langen, 08/05/2020]

The relocation might be permanent, as the Holiday Inn is changing to a Marriott and won't reopen until Summer 2021. Maybe the Convention Center can finally get the Cube spinning again.
