Your visit to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum helps fund our efforts to educate the world on the social significance of rock and roll. Like the music we celebrate, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is alive with the energy, passion and the spirit of music. The 150,000 square-foot museum features seven floors, four theaters for films, special events and free public programs and ever-changing exhibits - plus, you can even rent the Rock Hall for a special event.Back by popular demand: U2 3D, the groundbreaking 3-D concert film is showing in the Foster Theater. Admission is only $3 at the Museum's box office. Tour at your leisure. You can spend as little as an hour, or up to an entire day exploring all the Rock Hall's exhibits. There are many other worthy Cleveland attractions for you to enjoy during your visit to the North Coast, but this is the premier destination for the history of rock and roll!Photography now encouraged!

Allow at LEAST 5 hours when visiting the museum. There's so much to see. The museum is arranged so you start in the basement with the roots of rock and roll, and then work upstairs to the more current groups. Near the top is a multi screen theater featuring short clips of the Hall of Fame inductees by year which... More

The museum is a combination of history (in written, audio, and video formats) and memorabilia. There seemed to be a greater, but not exclusive emphasis on the forces that created and shaped the direction of the music. By its very nature, it is quite challenging to encapsulate and present rock 'n roll. After the museum, we agreed that if you... More

Something for everyone, young or old. Places to sit, relax and take in through out the hall. Worth a trip as everyone will... More

Pretty setting on the water. Great music learning experience for all music lovers! Check ahead they may have concerts or special events. Just a great day spent with family. My son chose this visit for his birthday trip. We took a friend & had Lunch at the Hard Rock Cafe! Good Times!

The building sitting next to Lake Erie is just spectacular and inside there is so much to see and hear and experience. It is mind boggling with music to appeal to many generations. Not to be missed.
