The seats of the Bluegrass Hall of Fame museum

Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame & Museum

Whether you’re walking through its immersive displays or attending a live jam session, the museum pulses with the energy of bluegrass. Every weekend, the sound of banjos, fiddles, and mandolins fills the halls during open jam sessions, while the museum’s own summer music festival, ROMP, draws thousands to celebrate the legacy and future of this truly Kentucky-born genre.


A pilgrimage to the Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame & Museum is a must for any traveler on the Kentucky Music Trail. Step inside, and you’ll find yourself surrounded by the music that echoes from the hollers to the hills, uniting generations with its raw, authentic sound.
