Country Music Hall of Fame in Nashville

Reviewed by: Gabrielle Rating:

Country music is undeniably Nashville, Tennessee’s most notorious claim to fame, and arguably its greatest modern influence on American culture.

The Country Music Hall of Fame in downtown Nashvhille pays tribute to this great legacy the city has left on country music and provides country enthusiasts with a haven to worship the craft and indulge in its history.  The museum serves to educate audiences on the history of country music and its evolving influence on the world.   Located on the west bank of the Cumberland River at 222 Fifth Avenue South—right by the historic Ryman Auditorium—the unique building of the museum is an exhibit in itself, and a distinguishing feature of downtown Nashville’s identity.

In operation since 1967, the Country Music Hall of Fame chronicles two centuries of music culture, providing a wealth of coveted knowledge about the untold crevices in country music history.  The current facility emerged in May 2001 and boasts a Hall of Fame Rotuna, where the bronze plaques of Hall of Fame inductees are displayed.  No trip to Nashville is complete without a visit to this museum, as it is a culmination of such a rich part of Nashville’s history and personality as a city.   Admission into this unparalleled country music experience is $19.99 for adults and $11.95 for children, providing an affordable opportunity for unique family fun, whether on vacation or spending a day with your kids in the city.
