The Elvis Presley Birthplace in Tupelo is gearing up for a birthday celebration.
On Sunday, Elvis would have been 77 years old.
Birthplace Executive Director Dick Guyton says the public is encouraged to attend the birthday party which will be held at 2 p.m. where the gift shop is located.
They plan to sing “Happy Birthday” and serve cake and punch.
Guyton says this annual event would have made Elvis proud.
“I know there are other birthday parties in our community as well as Graceland is having one on Sunday and they’re important as well, but the fact that the birthplace as a birthday party-that’s key,” Guyton said.
Guyton says guests will find out about a new offering at the birthplace.
They are now offering a new ticket which is an annual pass.
For one fee, six people can visit the attraction six times a year.
