In 1970, movie cameras captured Elvis Presley commanding the stage at The International Hotel, preserving a defining chapter of his Las Vegas career. On Saturday, Oct. 24, Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino will bring the spirit of those performances back to the same stage with “1970 Live! – That’s the Way It Was starring Elvis Tribute Artist Travis Powell at The International Theater.

Inspired by the documentary “Elvis: That’s the Way It Is,” the 7 p.m. concert continues Westgate’s series celebrating The King’s performances. The concert offers a chance to experience a tribute to that extraordinary era where it happened.

Released in 1970 and directed by Denis Sanders, “Elvis: That’s the Way It Is” followed Presley from rehearsals to the stage during his summer engagement at The International, now Westgate. With behind-the-scenes and performances, the film captured Presley’s range, personality and connection with audiences.

That blend of intimacy and showmanship provides the inspiration, revisiting an era when Presley moved effortlessly from rock ’n’ roll to ballads. With a nine piece band and nine background singers providing the harmonies, the show will feature favorites including “Suspicious Minds,” “Lost That Lovin’ Feelin’,” “Love Me Tender,” “Bridge Over Troubled Water” and “Heartbreak Hotel.”

“Elvis is part of the heart and history of Westgate, and every time his fans gather in The International Theater, you feel how powerful that connection remains,” said Westgate Marketing & Entertainment Senior VP Dawn Rawle.

“This show has a particularly special connection to our property. The performances that audiences have watched and loved in this documentary happened right here, and we’re excited to welcome Travis back to celebrate that chapter of Elvis’ story.”

For Powell, returning to the International Theater adds a personal dimension to the tribute. “When I watch ‘That’s the Way It Is,’ I’m struck by how much Elvis gives to every song and how naturally he connects with the audience,” he said. “Performing this music on the same stage carries a responsibility that means a great deal to me.

“I want to honor the heart he put into those performances and share that feeling with everyone in the theater.” For tickets and more information, click here.
