A King-Sized Celebration

Graceland, Memphis, Tennessee

Graceland, Memphis, Tennessee

Seventy-five years ago today, the world of music was forever changed when Elvis Aaron Presley was born in Tupelo, Mississippi. Now you can honor his legacy with a king-sized celebration at Graceland in Memphis, Tennessee. All weekend long the seriously OTT museum is hosting special tours and talks in addition to their usual Elvis-centric fare. The mansion is a U.S. Landmark, and every year, more than 600,000 people stop by to see Elvis’ former pad — especially the infamous Jungle Room and the Meditation Gardens where the king is buried.
 
To get to Graceland head to 3765 Elvis Presley Blvd., just down the road from the Heartbreak Hotel (3677 Elvis Presley Blvd.; 877-777-0606), where a room will set you back about $600 a night for a deluxe Elvis-themed suite. So put on your Blue Suede Shoes and boogie on down to Memphis. While you’re in town, check out some of our other Memphis favorites … and tell the King we said hello.
