Bethel Woods Named One of the Best Music Museums in the U.S.

Bethel Woods: Best Music Museum in The U.S.?

It's that time again! USA Today is asking for the public to help them pick the 10Best around the U.S.

If you've never heard of 10Best, USA Today sends their experts out across the nation to visit small towns, museums, historical sites, restaurants and so much more, to collect data.

The data and information is broken down and USA Today will create a list of the top 20 places, towns, restaurants etc. and will let the public vote the top 20 down to the 10Best.

Currently, USA is looking for the 10Best Music Museums and one of our favorites is on the list. The Museum at Bethel Woods has made the top 20 and is currently in 2nd place.

Why was the Museum at Bethel Woods chosen? USA Today writes:

The Museum at Bethel Woods is dedicated to preserving the stories of the 1969 Woodstock Music and Art Fair, perhaps the most famous three-day music festival in history. Visit the original site of Woodstock and be transported back in time via their main exhibit, which takes visitors through the 1960s with pictures, music, and films.

You can vote once daily until February 8th, 2026 at 10best.usatoday.com.
