Fans of the King of Rock & Roll are in for a treat when Penrith’s newest festival makes its way to Panthers in January.

You’ve likely heard of The Parkes Elvis Festival, and maybe even The Blue Mountains Elvis Festival.

Now, Penrith is getting its very own Elvis Festival.

Kicking off on Friday, January 13, Penrith Elvis Festival is guaranteeing a weekend full of fun with some of the world’s best tribute artists, including Johnny Lee Memphis, Brendon Chase, Paul Fenech and Rick Charles.

Events include trivia competitions, karaoke, feature shows, classic cars and a fashion parade.

Plus, strap yourself in for the Australian Elvis Tribute Artist Championships, with the Championship Heats, and the Final of the Australian Elvis Tribute Artist Championships 2023 being held in the EVAN Theatre over the course of the long weekend.

So, get your blue suede shoes, because this one is not to be missed.

Panthers Elvis Festival will be on at Panthers Penrith from Friday, January 13 to Sunday, January 15. Ticket prices for events are varied, with VIP Weekend Passes available for $210. For more information or to book, head to pantherselvisfestival.com.au.
