The Kentucky Music Hall of Fame, shaped like a large red horse stable.

Kentucky Music Hall of Fame and Museum

Step inside, and you’ll find yourself immersed in Kentucky’s musical heritage. From the early pioneers of bluegrass to modern chart-toppers, the Hall of Fame showcases the impact Kentucky artists have made on the world stage. With interactive displays, you can even create your own sound as you connect with the music that has shaped generations.


Outside, the outdoor amphitheater hosts concerts on a wooden stage, offering a true Kentucky music experience under the stars. Nearby, the John Lair House and the Bittersweet Cabin Village provide a glimpse into Kentucky’s history, while the Renfro Valley Entertainment Center next door keeps the music alive year-round with performances in its iconic venues.

Whether you’re a music lover or history enthusiast, the Kentucky Music Hall of Fame and Museum is a must-visit destination on the Kentucky Music Trail. Open daily, it’s a place where the past, present, and future of Kentucky music come together in perfect harmony.
