If you’ve ever been to Graceland in Memphis, Tennessee, then you probably already understand the appeal of the property. The 13.8-acre estate was once owned by the singer and actor Elvis Presley and remains one of the top tourist spots in Tennessee year after year. The colonial revival mansion is a beautiful place to visit no matter the time of year, but every holiday season Graceland just gets a bit more magical. Learn more below, and plan a trip for yourself! A visit to Memphis just might be in order.
Graceland is known for its expansive beauty and strong stance in music history, but did you know that the state throws an incredible Christmas shindig? It's true! Every year Graceland Mansion Christmas Tours kick-off to great fanfare, with locals and tourists alike coming to visit the mansion during the holiday season.
Folks can book an experience to take a guided tour of the property all decked out for the holidays. Both the interior and exterior of the expansive home will be artfully decorated with lights and seasonal decor.
Inside you'll see the mansion as never before, glowing with lights and full of holiday hope. There's just something about returning to a beautiful space when the world is wild, and Graceland is the perfect place to let loose and enjoy a historical tour with a light-filled twist.
You can also choose to spend the night as a guest at the Guest House at Graceland, a AAA Four-Diamond resort that's located just steps from the mansion itself. You'll even get a discount on guided tour tickets.
Elvis Presley's Graceland was even named in the Best Holiday Historic Home Tour by USA TODAY 10Best Readers' Choice Awards in 2019. Just after Thanksgiving every year, there's a Graceland Annual Lighting Ceremony that's perfect for the whole family to enjoy.
Graceland spares no expense when it comes to the beauty of the season, and we'd highly recommend planning a visit. The home of Elvis Presley seems to get more magical every year. You'll even get the chance to see this Santa display purchased by Elvis in 1957 and STILL in use to this day.
