Elvis Speed Dating Night

Got a Burning Love? Are you Lonesome Tonight? Are you a Priscilla in search of your Elvis? Fear not, Parkes Elvis™ Festival, has teamed up with Australia's number one speed dating service, Cityswoon, to host a special Elvis Speed Dating Night at The Bear Bar in Sydney on Saturday, 1 December 2018.

More than 40 years after his death, Elvis' romantic stylings and hip swivelling tunes are still bringing people together. This special event will continue that legacy with an evening of rocking entertainment, wonderful chat, dazzling outfits, and delicious Elvis inspired cocktails.

Some of Australia's best Elvis Tribute Artists will be on hand for the night, performing The King's greatest hits and working the room to help break the ice. To top it all off, there will be prizes for the best dressed – so make sure to preen that pompadour to full height, shine those blue suede shoes, pop that bedazzled collar, and dust off that poodle skirt for the chance to win!

To register, create a profile on Cityswoon.com.au/speed-dating-sydney.jsp and sign up to attend the Elvis Speed Dating Night. Tickets cost $59 and include two free drinks.

CitySwoon is the only company in the world to combine cloud-based matching live at a speed dating event. Participants will be matched with up to six dates via their smart phone on the night. After the guests have had a chance to meet with their matches the night then opens up into free mingling while the Elvii serenade from on stage.

"Elvis just has a way of connecting people. We see it every year at Parkes Elvis Festival and have had many people fall in love and come back years later to renew their wedding vows at the Festival," said Parkes Elvis Festival Director, Cathy Treasure. "The love and dedication that surrounds the Elvis and Rockabilly scene is virtually unmatched by any other genre of music out there, and we can't wait to help bring those passionate people together."

Parkes Elvis Festival started as a small get-together with a group of Elvis fans in 1993 in the town of Parkes, New South Wales, and has now grown today to an internationally renowned phenomenon, endorsed by the estate of Elvis Presley, Elvis Presley Enterprises Inc.

From Wednesday 9 January " Sunday 13 January 2019, more than 26,000 people will shake, rattle and roll into Parkes, NSW for the biggest tribute to The King in the Southern Hemisphere. The 2019 Parkes Elvis Festival program is filled to the brim with more than 150 unique Elvis-themed events that are sure to get you All Shook Up.
