On Dec. 9, more than 1,000 artists historians, and music industry professionals will vote on who will receive the coveted spots in the Hall of Fame. The chosen musicians will be inducted on March 29, 2019 at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center. The ceremony will be broadcast on HBO at a later date. SiriusXM will also broadcast the ceremony on the radio.
Fans can also have a say in the process by voting for their favorite artists at rockhall.com.
One vote per day is allowed. The top five artists will be added to the “fans ballot” which will be tallied with the other ballots.
