About 2nd Street

Welcome to 2nd Street, the intimate acoustic-music venue tucked inside the Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame & Museum in downtown Owensboro. With a seating capacity of about 450, this cozy space is built for up-close, authentic live performances—from bluegrass and folk to acoustic sets that let every note shine. Whether you’re here for ROMP festival events, a Billy Strings show, or a SteelDrivers performance, we’ve got you covered with practical details to help you plan a smooth night out.

For easy access, a parking lot behind the museum and a public parking garage one block away at 2nd Street & Locust Street are convenient options. Downtown Owensboro also offers the free Downtown Owensboro Trolley, with stops including 2nd & Allen for direct access to 2nd Street and the Woodward Theatre. If you’re staying nearby, consider the Hampton Inn & Suites Downtown/Waterfront right next to the venue, or the Holiday Inn Owensboro Riverfront within walking distance for a comfortable stay. For a complete night out, we’ve highlighted nearby hotels and dining options that partner with our network to help you secure a great deal on your stay and meals.
