NBC Christmas at Graceland

A Star-Studded, Holiday-Themed Elvis Tribute

Elvis Presley fans, and music lovers in general, NBC and Graceland are giving us a pretty unique (and awesome) gift this holiday season! Eight of the hottest names in music will perform a star-studded, holiday-themed Elvis tribute live inside the Graceland estate on Wednesday, November 29th at 9 p.m. CST. The concert will be broadcasted on air via NBC and simulcast on Peacock.

Here’s who’s set to perform:

  • Alanis Morissette
  • John Legend
  • Kacey Musgraves
  • Kane Brown
  • Lainey Wilson
  • Lana Del Rey
  • Post Malone
  • The War And Treaty 

Through these performances, the artists will give viewers a peek inside Graceland and express how influential Elvis was through his admiration of Christmas, music and song.

Another fun aspect of the night– you’ll see special appearances by Riley Keough, Elvis’ granddaughter, and executive producer of the show.

Memphis Card Revoked?

If you’re still hanging on to your Memphis card and haven’t visited Graceland, now is the perfect time to give it up! Let me tell you why:

  1. I was born and raised in Memphis. It took over two decades for me to get my Memphis card revoked by visiting Graceland. But when I went, I thoroughly enjoyed it! It’s comparable to a mini amusement park minus the scary roller coasters and crying babies.
  2. The holidays are a big deal at Graceland. I highly recommend you allow Graceland to really get you in the holiday spirit with the Holiday Lighting Ceremony, Christmas Tours, and Holiday Concert Weekend.
  3. In addition to huge names performing at the end of the month, Graceland Live hosts many musicians year-round for you to enjoy. Upcoming concerts include Black Jacket Symphony, David Foster & Katherine McPhee, Ari Shaffir, and more!

With innovative events like this, the Elvis/Graceland legacy will stay strong and relevant for another fifty years or more. It’s in good hands. ?

John Legend?? Really?

I haven't seen the entire lineup but am disappointed. I would highly suggest being more selective and less woke - regardless of the newby. Graceland has lost that mystique and quality it once had.

I would suggest taking binders full of notes from Priscilla.

I Love Elvis and always bought his albums and went to the drive in to see his movies!  I saw his Blue Hawaii movie about 7 times!  As a teenager I was crazy  about Elvis and as a 74 year old Senior Citizen, I am still crazy about Elvis and his music!
