For more than 50 years, the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum has shared the country music story – from its past to present day – through exhibitions, educational programs and publications.
The museum contributes significantly to Nashville’s prosperity, generating an economic impact of more than $81 million in 2019. Additionally, more than 2,300 full-time equivalent jobs were supported by the museum and its audiences, and $8.3 million in revenue was generated for local and state government.
In 2019, nearly 107,000 guests participated in 1,450 hands-on educational programs and more than 40,000 students engaged in museum programs for schools.
