Country music seems to be changing in this town, listen for yourself. This wonderful legendary music will remind you how it should and use to be. This is pre Gareth brooks!

BEST modern museum I have seen. Great exhibits, beautiful property. Plenty of space and many interactive things. I love music, not really a country fan, but I cant resist any good music. Very inspirational and informative. Easy and self paced, doesn't feel boring or "too educational." We expected to spend an hour and stayed for 5. Bought the celebrity audio... More

Spent a long rainy day here. Parking fee was awful and had to go and pay more to stay longer...LOL Enjoyed the timeline of exhibits as well as the special Patsy Cline exhibit. Attended a songwriters session too. Great place to visit.

Nicely laid out and informative. We didn't take the Studio B tour and wish that we had. Our friends really enjoyed it.

This place is awesome; first class all the way. Takes you from the humble beginnings to the modern day phenomena that country music is today. Get the headphones and follow along. You may want to arrive early as most days it gets crowded. Awesome place to visit!

It was a self guided tour that we did while waiting for the studio B bus tour. Must see Elvis' Cadillac. There is also a great gift shop at the museum.

We enjoyed touring very much there is construction going on so some artifacts were off display and after they finish the renovation I would love to return to see all the new exhibits.
