CLEVELAND — The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame is set to reopen its doors next week as the state of Ohio continues its recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic.
As a salute to all of the people on the front lines, the Rock Hall is offering a special free admission day for healthcare workers and their families on Sunday, June 14. Healthcare workers could book their free tickets at rockhall.com beginning Thursday, but those spots quickly sold out.

Live music on the plaza will resume in July on Thursday and Saturday evenings from 5-7 p.m. In addition, the Rock Hall has extended its massive Play It Loud: Instruments of Rock & Roll exhibit, co-organized with the Metropolitan Museum of Art, through December 2020.
