Georgia Music Hall of Fame, Music museum in the United States of America

The Georgia Music Hall of Fame was a museum in Macon dedicated to the state's music history. The building held exhibits of instruments, photographs, recordings, and personal belongings from musicians across different periods and genres.

The Georgia Music Hall of Fame program began in 1979, with Ray Charles and publisher Bill Lowery as first inductees. The museum itself opened on September 22, 1996, in a 43,000-square-foot building in downtown Macon. It closed on June 12, 2011, due to low attendance and reduced state funding; the collection went to the University of Georgia Special Collections Libraries.

The exhibits displayed multiple music genres including country, blues, rock, and gospel through artifacts and memorabilia. Visitors could experience how these different styles shaped the musical traditions people connected with Georgia.

The location is no longer open to visitors since the museum permanently closed in 2011. Anyone interested in Georgia's music history can find related collections at other venues across the state.

The permanent galleries were laid out as a Georgia town, with venues such as the Jazz and Swing Club, Vintage Vinyl and the Rhythm & Blues Revue holding artifacts, interpretive text and audio-visual elements. A second phase, the Billy Watson Music Factory, opened in 1999 for pre-K and elementary pupils to explore rhythm, melody and composition by hand.
