The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum will celebrate the nonprofit institution’s 20 millionth visitor since moving downtown in 2001 with a commemoration on Wednesday, April 15, at 11 a.m.
Celebrated for its broad cultural impact, educational mission, and unrivaled collection of historically important artifacts, the nonprofit Museum has worked to collect, preserve, and interpret the evolving history of country music through exhibits, publications, educational programs, and more since 1967. As the world’s largest repository of country music history, the Museum teaches its diverse audiences about the enduring beauty and cultural importance of the artform. Today, the Museum is among the most-visited history museums in the U.S., welcoming nearly 1.4 million visitors in 2025. Next month will mark the Museum’s 25th anniversary downtown.
Attendees to the celebration will be able to celebrate the milestone by printing their own keepsake poster from Hatch Show Print — the nearly 150-year-old letterpress print shop owned and operated by the Museum. Museum visitors will also be able to create their own friendship bracelet to commemorate the celebration.
