Welcome to the Hank Snow Country Music Centre website - an
online resource for people who want to know more about world renowned
country music legend Hank Snow. Hank was born just outside of Liverpool,
Nova Scotia, and as a young teenager he occasionally slept in Liverpool's
historic CN Railway Station, now the home of the most unique country music
attraction northeast of Nashville. The Hank Snow Country Music Centre was
showcased more than once on TNN shows 'Today's Country' and 'This Week in
Country Music', and features many personal memorabilia of Nova Scotia's
"native son" Hank Snow (including his 1947 convertible Cadillac) as well as
memorabilia from various Canadian country music stars, including Carroll
Baker, Wilf Carter, Ronnie Prophet, George Hamilton IV, Lucille Starr and
others.
The museum contains interactive, educational displays, telling the
history of country music and its instruments, which are a delight for our
younger audiences. You are also invited to watch rare footage on various
video presentations.
The HANK SNOW COUNTRY MUSIC CENTRE is
also the home of the Nova Scotia Country
Music Hall of Fame, the Nova Scotia Ukulele Hall of Fame and an
extensive country music archives and library. The museum gift shop offers an
extensive selection of rare classical country CDs and tapes, unique
souvenirs, the Hank Snow Centre Video, pictures, books and instrument
supplies. The centre has washroom facilities, a picnic area, coach and RV
parking and is wheelchair accessible.
