The Niagara Falls Music Hall of Fame announced the Induction Class of 2020 last October. At that time, it was not possible to hold a formal celebration.

The Niagara Falls Music Hall of Fame 2020 Induction Ceremony will be held at the Rapids Theatre, 1711 Main Street, Niagara Falls NY on the evening of Thursday July 22 2021.  Doors open at 6pm and the ceremony starts at 7pm. A limited number of general admission tickets are available to the public starting Monday June 7th, 2021. Tickets may be purchased for $25 only through the Rapids Theatre website  www.rapidstheatre.com or at their box office.  Tickets and seating for this ceremony are first come, first served. Also refer to the Rapids Theatre website for up-to-date details on adherence to New York State music venue guidelines. Music performances will include inductees from the class of 2020 and from previous years.

Nominations for 2021 Inductees are now being accepted through August 31 2021. People in the music community, as well as the general public, are urged to nominate individuals, groups, businesses, venues or events that are deserving of induction, as only those nominated are considered each year. You may nominate yourself or another party. In order to preserve the cultural and musical diversities of the greater Niagara Falls New York area, nominations from all genres of music that have had a significant impact on the local music scene and the music industry in general are strongly encouraged.  For more information on nominations and to download the 2021 nomination form, go to the NFMusicHOF website;    https://www.nfmusichof.org/nomination-process.
