Graceland
Even though Elvis Presley has been gone for over 45 years, his music and legacy live on. His songbook is as popular now as it was when he first performed them decades ago and his home and estate, Graceland, is still a top tourist attraction. So it's no surprise that there's a live music special, Christmas at Graceland in the works for the holiday season.
Like its title implies, the special will take place at Graceland and will feature some of today's hottest performers, including Alanis Morissette, John Legend, Lainey Wilson and more. Actress Riley Keough, who is Elvis Presley's granddaughter and now sole owner of Graceland said in a release, "My family and I are elated to open the doors to Graceland in this first-of-its-kind special." Keough, who is also an executive producer, added, "With intimate musical performances drawing inspiration from my grandfather Elvis’s cherished Christmases in Memphis, viewers will be invited to experience firsthand the magic that is Christmas at Graceland.” Keough will make appearances throughout the special.
“To celebrate the holidays at Graceland, and be a part of the King’s legacy, is both an honor and absolute dream come true,” said Jen Neal, executive vice president, live events and specials, NBCUniversal Media Group. “We thank Riley and her family for allowing all of us to visit her grandfather’s iconic home and share an intimate musical experience that Elvis would’ve truly loved.”
