Roll of Renown & Galaxy of Stars

The highest honour in country music is being recognised in the Australasian Roll of Renown.

Standing in front of Tamworth Regional Entertainment and Conference Centre (TRECC) is the Australasian Country Music Roll of Renown. The roll honours those who have made a significant and lasting contribution in the industry. Over 50 country music icons have been immortalised on the giant granite boulders, with new additions unveiled each year at the Tamworth Country Music Festival.

Next to the Roll of Renown is the country music Galaxy of Stars. Each year stars are recognised with star shaped plaques set into the forecourt to celebrate their place in country music.
