Graceland Holiday Lighting Being Streamed Live


Martina McBride will make an electrifying appearance Friday night (Nov. 21) in Memphis when she flips the switch during the annual holiday lighting ceremony at Graceland. Elvis won’t be there, although modern technology has allowed McBride to sing a duet with him on “Blue Christmas,” the opening track of his new Christmas Duets album. Fans around the world will be watching the lighting ceremony on Elvis.com via video streaming on a special LiveCam. This year’s ceremony will also feature actress Marlo Thomas, who will launch the fifth annual St. Jude’s Thanks and Giving campaign for the holiday season. And artist Thomas Kinkade will unveil his latest masterpiece, “Graceland Christmas.” The ceremony begins at approximately 6 p.m. CT, although most of the people actually gathering at Graceland will be living the moment in Elvis Time.
