Following the success of two sold-out performances of “1969 Live! The King Returns” last year, Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino is expanding its celebration of Elvis Presley with two immersive concert experiences honoring The King’s legendary Las Vegas legacy inside the iconic International Theater.

Returning Friday, July 31, internationally acclaimed Elvis Tribute Artist Travis Powell stars in “1969 LIVE! The King Returns,” re-creating the electrifying performances that marked Presley’s historic return to live entertainment in 1969 at the International Hotel, now Westgate Las Vegas.

Continuing the celebration this fall, Westgate will debut “1970 Live! That’s the Way It Was” on Saturday, Oct. 24, transporting audiences back to one of the most celebrated moments in entertainment history.

Inspired by the acclaimed 1970 documentary, the immersive production re-creates the unforgettable performances captured during Elvis’ legendary Las Vegas residency – performed inside the very theater where the documentary was filmed.

Step back in time and watch technicolor history come to life as “That’s the Way It Was” re-creates one of the most iconic concert experiences ever captured on film, allowing audiences to relive the music, energy and excitement that defined Elvis at the height of his career.

“No destination in the world has a more authentic connection to Elvis Presley than Westgate Las Vegas,” said Westgate Las Vegas Marketing & Entertainment Senior VP Dawn Rawle.

“From re-creating the excitement of his legendary 1969 comeback to bringing ‘That’s the Way It Was’ to life inside the very theater where it was filmed, we’re creating experiences that allow fans to connect with Elvis’ legacy in a way they simply can’t anywhere else.

“These productions are more than tribute shows – they’re living celebrations of entertainment history.” The July 31 celebration transforms Westgate into the ultimate destination for Elvis fans with an immersive weekend honoring The King’s music, style and Las Vegas legacy.
