| Grammy Museum Opens at L.A. Live With Terrace and Stage for Events |
|
The Recording Academy and AEG's much-buzzed-about Grammy Museum will officially open this week at L.A. Live with five days of events, including a V.I.P. reception on Wednesday, a gala fund-raising concert on Thursday, and a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Friday. The museum features four floors and 30,000 square feet of exhibit space, and it's debut coincides with the Grammys' 50th anniversary year.
The new museum will be open to the public until 6 p.m., so special events may be booked at the space after 6:30 any night of the week. Groups are free to explore three floors of exhibits after hours during private parties. The second floor features a small stage—known as the Grammy Sound Stage—designed for intimate shows such as acoustic sets. The 12- by 20-foot stage is surrounded by 206 seats. The facility handles staging and sound. |
