Have you read through this?

A tempo mark will accept a markup expression as an argument, so you can use
all the normal markup commands (including glyphs). By default, \tempo puts
the \markup in boldface, so you may have to insert a \normal-text. Here is
an example:
\version "2.18.2"
{
\tempo \markup \left-column {
\line { line 1 }
\line \normal-text { line 2 including a glyph:
\smaller \general-align #Y #DOWN \note #"8" #1 = 160 }
}
}

\tempo \markup
