Elvis Presley may have died at just 42 back in 1977, but had the King of Rock and Roll lived, he would be 90 today.
Every year at Graceland, the singer’s birthday is celebrated with an official proclamation ceremony on the front lawn of his Memphis mansion, complete with the cutting of a giant cake.
This 90th birthday milestone event takes place today on Wednesday January 8 and 8:30am CST, which is at 2:30pm UK time.
Check out the Vimeo video at that time here to watch live and celebrate with Elvis fans worldwide.
In previous years, old friends and family have shown up, and sometimes new Elvis news breaks, so you won’t want to miss it.
As teased by Graceland: “Elvis’ Birthday Celebration officially kicks off with our annual proclamation ceremony on the front lawn of Graceland. Featuring a larger-than-life birthday cake to honor the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll, the proclamation of Elvis Presley Day is read by Memphis and Shelby County officials. Fans who are unable to attend can watch the ceremony online for free via Graceland’s Vimeo page.”
