The Grammy Awards are always an exciting time in music and history, but what about past Grammy Awards shows? If you just watched the Grammy Awards now is a good time tow learn more at the Grammy Museum.

The Grammy Museum explores and celebrates the enduring legacies of all forms of music; the creative process; the art and technology of the recording process; and the history of Grammy Awards, the premier recognition of recorded music accomplishment.

The Grammy Museum is an exciting and interactive celebration of the power of music occupying a vibrant new space at the heart of L.A. LIVE in downtown Los Angeles. This entertainment district provides Los Angeles’ residents, commuters, guests, and tourists with a world-class sports and entertainment destination. Four floors of cutting edge exhibits, interactive experiences, and films provide a one-of-a-kind visitor experience — engaging, educational, celebratory, and inspirational.

From here, you take an elevator to the fourth floor, where the gallery experience begins.

The moment the elevator doors open, you are fully immersed in the Grammy experience. A hallway of music welcomes you. The passageway opens up to an exciting gallery space filled with content-rich interactives, films, and artifacts. These can be explored in any order you choose.

The third floor takes you behind the scenes into the art and technology of the recording process. This exciting array of exhibits and interactive experiences can be explored in any order and features the voices and stories of musicians, producers, and engineers.
