Private Presley Graceland Tours

Memorial Day Weekend, Graceland will honor Elvis Presley’s U.S. Army service (1958-1960) with special tours of Graceland Mansion. Private Presley Graceland Tours will be available May 22 to 25, from 3:00 pm – 5:00 pm.

The tours will feature live guides throughout the mansion sharing stories of his military service and how Graceland was a part of the journey – from receiving his draft notice during Christmas 1957 to his homecoming press conference in his father’s office. Special artifact displays commemorating his time in the U.S. Army will also be featured throughout the mansion during the weekend.

In addition, Private Presley tour buyers will be among the first to see our new The American Spirit of Elvis Presley display, highlighting Elvis Presley’s deep connection to his country in celebration of America’s 250 anniversary. Located in Elvis’ Racquetball Court, this display brings together a curated selection of artifacts offering a closer look at this meaningful side of Elvis’ life and legacy.

At Elvis Presley’s Memphis entertainment complex, located across the street from the mansion, guests will also be able to visit our Private Presley exhibit, a permanent exhibit that expands on the story of Elvis’ military service through photos, videos and additional artifacts.
