VISITOR POLICY

PHOTOGRAPHY/VIDEOS

The Rock Hall allows photography and videos for personal, non-commercial purposes (except in areas designated with “No Photography” signs). In fact, we encourage you to share your experience! Help us to preserve these priceless pieces of rock and roll history by making sure your flash is turned off.  If you’re a journalist who needs images or video, or who would like to visit the Rock Hall for a story, please email [email protected]

WI-FI

Free wi-fi is available in all public areas, including in the lobbies and café.

PARENTAL ADVISORIES

Our exhibits contain straightforward depictions of the history of rock and roll and its culture.  Some exhibits and films contain mature themes and images.

The Rock Hall frequently updates and changes its exhibits, so certain areas may be closed during your visit for maintenance.
