Chepstow prepares to host the town's second 'Elvis Day'
After an overwhelmingly popular debut last June, boasting a packed crowd in the town centre for the day-long celebrations, the event has been confirmed for a return on Sunday, June 22, 2025.
Chepstow's inaugural 'Elvis Day' in June 2024 was a hit, with live tribute acts, best-dressed competitions, and joyrides.
The audience also enjoyed a US run stall of Elvis memorabilia.
The day was rounded off with a sold-out 'Elvis Gospel Show' at St Mary's Priory Church.
Planning for next year appears to guarantee even more excitements, including an Elvis show at The Drill Hall, Chepstow on June 21 featuring three award-winning tribute acts.
The main event on Sunday, June 22, will offer a trove of American cars, 30 Harley Davidson motorcycles parading into town, and an open-for-all Elvis Karaoke session.
For the main part, the 'Everything Elvis Day' offers a free community event supported by Chepstow Town Council.
However, the Elvis Show at the Drill Hall on June 21 and the Elvis Gospel Show at St Mary's Priory, are ticketed events available on the Castell Roc website, via 01291 627122, or through Hannah's Music, Moor Street, Chepstow.
