Press Release Summary = News of the Elvis Presley Festival Tupelo, June 3-5 2005.

Press Release Body = The beautiful life-sized bronze statue of “Elvis at 13” by artistic sculptor, Michiel Van der Sommen, is an added bonus for the vast numbers of Elvis Presley fans expected to attend the exciting Elvis Festival in Tupelo Mississippi.

There are many bronze statues of the legendary singer in places as far apart as Memphis, Shreveport, Las Vegas, London, Cyprus, and even Israel. But none of them are quite as poignant and accessible as the much photographed figure in Tupelo. Standing close to the little house where Elvis was born, it has become a favourite with visitors who actually embrace, or hold the hand of the young Elvis who is
depicted strolling home, guitar in hand, dressed in dungarees. Friday Night's Headliner: Chuck Berry will lead a cast of fine entertainers who are sure to make the weekend a most memorable occasion. The vast amount of publicity generated by the Elvis related shows drawing large crowds in New York, London, and recently in Beijing China, along with the 4 hour,
Elvis biography on American television last month, is sure to encourage many to head for the annual Elvis event in Tupelo. After all it was in this southern city that Elvis first discovered his amazing talent – The voice that would rock the world. Location: Front Street- Downtown Tupelo Price: Tickets go on sale May 2, 2005; Advance tickets are $10 per night (plus
service charge); Gate prices are $15 per night.
