Following dinner is our feature Event, an Elvis Holiday Tribute Show with a live band, back-up singers, full stage lighting and sound as well as one of America’s best known tribute artists. You’ll hear such great songs as “Merry Christmas Baby,” “White Christmas,” “I’ll Be Home For Christmas,” and many other traditional Holiday Songs all performed in the inimitable Elvis-style including his title song “Blue Christmas.”

And the when those blue snowflakes start fallin’

That’s when those blue memories start callin’

You’ll be doin’ all right, with your Christmas of white
