Tickets
Each show is ticketed on its own, so you can come for one night or all four days. Seats come in three levels: General Admission, Premium and Ultimate VIP. Current prices are on the ticket page.
The contest
The Ultimate Elvis™ Tribute Artist Contest is Graceland's official search for the best Elvis tribute artist, run under licence from Elvis Presley Enterprises. Contestants come through the Radio Round on Friday afternoon and two semi-finals before Saturday night's final, where one performer is crowned the Las Vegas champion and earns a place at Graceland during Elvis™ Week 2027.
Staying at the resort
Alexis Park is the host resort, so the performers, the parties and the pool are all in one place. Staying on site lets you walk between events, which helps on Thursday and Saturday nights when shows run back to back. Parking is free nearby.
Where it is
The Modern Showrooms at Alexis Park Resort, 375 E Harmon Ave, Las Vegas, NV 89169. It is about a mile east of the Strip: around five minutes by car from the center of the Strip, or a short rideshare.
Elvis in Las Vegas the rest of the year
All Shook Up plays the same showroom every night at 6:00 PM, so you can see an Elvis show at the festival venue on any trip.
