Graceland Performing Arts Camp Debuts This Summer Elvis Presley's Graceland has announced its first-ever Performing Arts Camp - an immersive theater arts and music experience for kids and teens, ages 6 to 15, and their families, July 18 through 22, 2018. Working closely with the Presley family to develop the program and curriculum, the Graceland team has created a unique and fun experience for attendees, all of whom will learn acting, music and dance techniques alongside new friends from around the world.

Participants will learn from local and Broadway professionals as they explore their creativity in workshops at the Graceland Soundstage, on stage at The Guest House at Graceland Theater and on actual production sets featured in the acclaimed "Sun Records" TV series. Over the four days of activities, everyone will develop their own showcase, culminating in an evening of performances on stage at The Guest House Theater for family and friends.

During the camp experience, each participant will follow in the footsteps of Elvis Presley throughout their stay, as they explore the Graceland campus, including the new Elvis Presley's Memphis entertainment and exhibit complex and The Guest House at Graceland resort, tour Elvis' legendary home, and learn how he became the greatest entertainer of all time - in the studio, on stage and on the big screen. Movie screenings, pool parties and other camp activities will take place over the four days, in addition to the performing arts workshops and creative sessions.

While participants are having fun during the day, parents and other family members will keep busy with Graceland activities, Memphis city tours, movies in the theater and relaxing poolside at The Guest House, reuniting with their children in the evening for family dinners and activities. This is a one-of-a-kind experience for the entire family as their talented kids and teens have the unique opportunity to perform live on stage at Graceland.

There is very limited availability for this first-ever Graceland Performing Arts Camp experience, which includes four nights at The Guest House at Graceland resort hotel, just steps away from the Graceland Mansion, all meals and camp activities for an all-inclusive price.
