My review
I was invited to the pre-launch of Elvis direct from Graceland, an exhibition taking place in London at arches London Bridge. You receive a headset with an audio guide and can go around the exhibition at your own pace. Each section of the exhibition tells a story and is numbered so you won't get lost.
There's so much to look at, with genuine pieces from Elvis Presley's wardrobe. I got to see his unique customised Toro and karate Style suits up close like never before. Step back in time with a look at Elvis through the years. From his army days. Hollywood film and of course live on stage.
Visitors can buy unique merchandise and fan memorabilia. With a bar serving refreshments at the end of the Exhibition. At the bar, large screens play Scenes of Elvis live and it really feels like you're in concert with the King himself.
