Set Sail For Elvis' 75th Birthday

Elvis Presley Enterprises and Sixthman proudly announce The Elvis Cruise 2010, sailing Nov 4 through Nov 8, 2010, aboard Carnival Fascination from Jacksonville, Florida, to sunny Nassau, Bahamas. Similar to the most recent 2009 Elvis Cruise, the voyage will feature the best performers and personalities from the Elvis Presley world, as well as non-stop Elvis-themed activities. The Elvis Cruise 2010 is part of Graceland's yearlong celebration of the 75th Anniversary of Elvis' birthday.

The Elvis Cruise 2009, which sailed last month, was the first partnership between Sixthman and Elvis Presley Enterprises. The voyage featured live performances by Elvis' band mates, friends, and Elvis tribute artists; additionally, stars and others who worked with the King of Rock 'n' Roll reminisced during informative panels. Seventy-five cruisers were invited to participate in Sunday morning's gospel show choir, and on Monday morning, guests debarked with nothing but positive feedback for the event.

Hosted again by Elvis' friend Jerry Schilling, The Elvis Cruise 2010 features Elvis-themed entertainment, parties, and activities, including music and presentations by those who knew and performed with Elvis himself. Elvis' Imperials, Joe Guercio, The Memphis Boys with Bobo Moreno, Terry Mike Jeffrey, Andy Childs, and Larry Geller are just some of the artists scheduled to perform. Also, no Elvis Cruise would be complete without Elvis Tribute Artists: we will be joined by some of the most renowned in the world, including Mark Anthony, Brandon Bennett, Bill Cherry, Victor Trevino, and others. Supporting these entertainers once again will be The EAS Band. DJ Argo will also be featured, and more musicians, special guests and tribute artists will be announced soon.

Elvis fans can book their cabins for The Elvis Cruise 2010 beginning today, Dec 21, 2009 by visiting the official Elvis Cruise web site.
