Visit Rockcastle County
Rockcastle County is home to historic Renfro Valley Entertainment Center, which was founded in
1945 by John Lair. In 2002, the Kentucky Music Hall of Fame and Museum opened its doors with the
pioneer class of inductees. It has become a premier tourist attraction for both music fans and history
lovers and was the original riding stables. The museum is filled with a collection of artifacts and
memorabilia highlighting the careers of our inductees for all genres, as well as temporary exhibits on
display. I t is also home of the Mt. Vernon Rockcastle County Visitor Center. You can also purchase
a souvenir in the Gift Shop. Every 2 years, a new set of inductees are celebrated through a ceremony
& case unveiling. Events are held at the museum, including singer songwriter rounds, and open jam
sessions. On the Second Saturday in September, the Kentucky Food Truck Championship is held with
over 20 food trucks competing for $9000 in prizes, as well as craft vendors, kids activities, and more.
