Elvis fans, rejoice. You can now pay proper homage to the original “King of Rock ‘n’ Roll,” who would have been 75 years old this year if he hadn’t had that untimely death on the john. This Saturday, the top Elvis Presley tribute artists will descend on Miami to celebrate the King in his glory and not-so-glorious days.
The Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artists Tour is a multimedia concert featuring live bands and performers as well as images from the Graceland archives. These tribute artists aren’t your run-of-the-mill impersonators. The lineup includes four of the world’s most convincing Elvis look-alikes (you’ll hardly be able to tell the difference), who will take you through his life and career in the ’50s and ’60s. (No bloated, sweaty Elvis karate-choppin’ in a jumpsuit here.) Swing your hips on over to the BankUnited Center to catch the action.

Will you step up to support New Times this year?
At New Times, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $16,750 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $30,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of New Times, now’s the time to give back.
