Spring break at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum (CMHoF) will include two Easter Brunch seatings (March 27) in addition to a slew of family fun (March 19-April 3), including free admission for K-12 Cheatham, Davidson, Robertson, Rutherford, Sumner, Williamson, and Wilson Counties (with school ID or apparel). Accompanying adults will receive $10 off.

The McCrary Sisters—Alfreda, Ann, Deborah and Regina—will headline the museum’s inaugural Easter Brunch with two family-style seatings, 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. in the museum’s upstairs Event Hall. Included in the $60 price for adults ($25 for kids 6-12 and free for kids 5 and under) are a performance, Easter Bunny, museum admission and meal prepared by museum executive chef Bobby Hammock. Brunch will feature waffles and scrambled eggs made to order, apple-cider-brined pork, braised Swiss steaks, mushroom-and-herb-stuffed chicken breast, shrimp and lobster Newburg and much more.

“In the same spirit as our holiday Deck the Hall concert series, we wanted to create an annual spring event to bring Nashville friends and families together,” said Sharon Brawner, Sr. VP of sales and marketing for the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. “This Easter Sunday, we are excited to share the museum galleries, engaging programming and the unmatched views from our Event Hall with the local community. What better place to enjoy soul-stirring gospel music and good Southern cooking than at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum.”

Museum event spaces such as the Taylor Swift Education Center will feature hands-on music-making, songwriting, and art programs, including:
