Alan Jackson just announced a new Nashville museum that promises to take fans through his life and career journey.
The one-of-a kind attraction will also allow those of age to sip whiskey as they tour.
- The Alan Jackson Museum will open on June 25.
- The full name is Alan Jackson’s Silverbelly Whiskey Distillery and Museum, as the beverage will be blended and bottled onsite.
- On June 27, Jackson will play his final show at Nissan Stadium in Nashville.
A Silverbelly Whiskey distillery will occupy part of the same space at 121 3rd Ave. South in Nashville. That’s the spirt Jackson introduced to fans in 2022. It’s distilled specifically for him, but in quantities fans can purchase and enjoy.

The whiskey will go from barrel to bottle on site, and anyone 21 years old or older can tour the museum, glass in hand.
Where Is Alan Jackson’s Museum?
Alan Jackson’s museum will be located right next door to the Johnny Cash museum, in a space formerly occupied by Show Pony and before that Johnny Cash Bar and BBQ.
Both venues are across the street from Lainey Wilson‘s Bellbottoms Up.
The Business Journal revealed Jackson’s involvement in March, stating only that the distillery was coming.
While Lower Broadway and the attached streets are teeming with celebrity bars and restaurants, museums have become a tough sell. The Country Music Hall of Fame is within walking distance, and the Cash museum opened in 2013.
Others like a museum honoring Patsy Cline and one focused on Glen Campbell have come and gone.
The “Chattahoochee” singer knows the landscape a bit better than most, however. AJ’s Good Time Bar is a short walk away on Broadway and is one of the first artist-endorsed bars.
Jackson also owns the place, which makes him truly unique in Nashville.
Details about what kind of exhibits will be inside the museum, as well as hours of the facility, are not yet available.
Every Country Star Bar in Nashville, Ranked by Reviews
Here is every country star bar or restaurant in Nashville, ranked according to their Google reviews. Plus, highlights (or lowlights) from those reviews so you can map your Lower Broadway experience with confidence.
Certain things are true about every country singer’s bar in Nashville: The drinks are expensive, they probably don’t serve draft beer and you’re going to wait for service during peak hours. A few bars go above and beyond at every level, while others … well, they might consider changes.
The difference between a 4.1-star business and a 4.8-star business is how you treat people (and how little water you put in the drinks).
