ROCK HALL AT THE RYMAN
With rebels, rockers, and renegades in mind, the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and the Ryman have come together to create Rock Hall at the Ryman. Handpicked by the experts at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, these interactive exhibits introduce you to the impressive lineup of rockers who have made the Ryman’s historic stained-glass windows shake. You can experience it as part of every tour of the Ryman.
"What a thrill to be here."

What Is Included in the Exhibit?
Our displays rotate regularly, but you can count on artifacts from artists like Lynyrd Skynyrd, James Brown, Joan Jett, and Elvis Presley. This gallery is located in a separate wing from the main auditorium to properly recognize and embrace Nashville’s deep rock roots.
UNBELIEVABLE STAR POWER
Of the 351 artists and individuals who have been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, more than 100 have also performed on the Ryman stage. From Diana Ross to Lynyrd Skynyrd, R.E.M. to Dolly Parton, Johnny Cash to Ray Charles, there's no shortage of star power on display at the Rock Hall.
ONE BOLD PARTNERSHIP
The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame’s (RRHOF) mission to “engage, teach and inspire through the power of rock & roll,” easily weaves into the decades-long, rock-rich story of the Ryman. So much so that Ryman Auditorium became one of 12 iconic musical institutions named a Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Landmark in early 2022.
