Description

The Music City Walk of Fame Park stood across the street from the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. The park featured inset engraved tiles dedicated to individuals who have made a significant contribution to music by any means and who are connected to Nashville. With help from founding sponsor Gibson Brands, the Walk of Fame was established in 2006. Closing for reconstruction in 2014, the park reopened in 2015. Inductees range from the Fisk Jubilee Singers and Jimi Hendrix (1942-1970) to Dolly Parton (1946-) and Martha Ingram (1935-).
