The staff here is awesome. There is so much music history to learn about. Give yourself a few hours. The tour is interactive. You can read about the exhibits and you have an iPad and head set to select recordings. Very cool.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNoPrice for adult entry$11–15
I absolutely loved this museum. There is a short 12 minute film giving brief history of Memphis music. Afterwards you are given a headset and can enter numbers on display to hear history of each display. The museum is next to Fed Ex Forum and Beale Street so a great location. It has a very nice gift shop and all of the employees are very friendly and helpful. What I enjoyed most was the short film and how it showed that musicians didn’t see color when making music even in 1950’s. They worked together to create art!!! The love for music trumped focus on a skin complexion. I learned a lot about the history of music in Memphis by visiting this museum and Musicians Music Hall of Fame Memphis. I had no idea that Ike Turner, Al Green, Otis Redding, Elvis, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis et al started out in studios in Memphis. Even learned about the Phillip brothers producing most of them. They wanted to make a way so black singers could be heard all over the country and did it. What an interesting history. Memphis was the first city to record and distribute black artist!!! This museum even gives the history of share croppers and music. How men and women would be in cotton fields singing gospel and how the music graduated to blues, rock and soul. The sounds were the key. This is a wonderful museum and I highly recommend visiting if in Memphis and love music history. Plan to spend 2-3 hours. I went around 3pm Saturday and it was a little crowed. I recommend going during week or earlier in morning if want to move freely throughout museum. It wasn’t horrible bad but was hard to get to certain displays because of the crowds at each.
Great museum chock full of history. Lots of cool neon signage. They also give you an audio device not an extra charge! Wow! that really lets you interact with the exhibits. Could spend a lot of time in there if you really wanted. Gift shop was pretty small though unfortunately.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes
This was such a cool museum. There's a short video at the beginning and then you get a headset so you can scan each exhibit and listen to the background. Some exhibits allow you to choose music to listen to. I really enjoyed taking the time to view the exhibits I liked and to take photos. I learned a lot about how far we've come. I can't imagine having one battery that lasts 3 months in a radio and having to wait until you can afford to buy another one month later. It was also really cool learning about the first black radio station.
Really great museum affiliated with the Smithsonian! The self-guided tour lets you go at your own pace. And you can listen to some great recordings!Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNoPrice for adult entry$11–15
Really enjoyed that all the tours came with an audio guide, which is a big advantage for a music museum. We also found cheaper tickets available on Groupon, but would have happily paid full price.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYesPrice for adult entry$6–10

Amazing small museum to learn about the music and culture of Memphis. It took me about an hour to explore the entire museum. There a short film that also covers the history of the music. The admission was $13 for adults. There is another option that includes admission to the Memphis Music Hall of Fame Museum at Beale Street and Second Street, available for $18 per person.
This museum was not originally on our list of museums to see but because of New Years some of the other spots were closed. However, we were pleasantly surprised! The location is super convenient, right beside the FedEx center and Beale Street. At the beginning of the museum there is a short intro film and then you get to go around and look at all the exhibits. The audio guide is super helpful and you get to play many songs from the period. Definitely recommend!
So so very educational and entertaining. I had my visit shortened because they had an event that evening but I was allowed to return the following day. I could have stayed all day. Love, love, love the stories behind the music and hearing it told by the artists themselves Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNoPrice for adult entry$11–15
