The Country Music Hall of Fame® and Museum’s newest major exhibit, Outlaws & Armadillos: Country’s Roaring ’70s explores an era of cultural and artistic exchange between Nashville and Austin, revealing untold stories and never-seen artifacts.

The Country Music Hall of Fame® and Museum tells the story of legendary mountain musician Ralph Stanley in its exhibition Ralph Stanley: Voice from on High. The exhibit opened July 13, 2018, and will run through Jan. 6, 2019.

A new roots music tradition starts this summer! “Americana at the Ryman” brings newcomers and veterans to the mother church each Sunday night, from July 15 through August 19, for a musical revival like no other!

Join WSM each week on the Ryman Plaza starting at 4:30pm for the Pre-Show Shindig with Route 650 before Americana at the Ryman. We'll have live music featured each week, WSM personalities and giveaways, a Hatch Show Print display, a “Good Ole Fashioned Cookout” and specials from Cafe Lula, and a pop up shop. You don't want to miss out on all the fun and festivities!
