These Amazing Vegas Acts Are Worth Every Penny

Elvis Presley

Elvis’ Vegas debut was in 1956 when he was only 21 years old. At the International and Las Vegas Hilton, Elvis had 837 consecutive sellouts from 1969, when he opened at the then-International, through 1976 at the then named Hilton Hotel. At Elvis’ opening night in 1969, more than 2,000 fans turned up, with the line stretching into the hotel’s front lobby. Of course, Elvis is a Vegas staple, with Elvis marriage boutiques where couples can be married by audacious Elvis impersonators.

His Vegas shows were loud, rock n’ roll and full of the in-between-set charm that won over all Elvis’ female fans.
