Elvis Rocks Mesquite announces all-star judges
Elvis fans prepare for an exciting competition
By Tara Trovato
This month, Mesquite Gaming, owner of Casablanca Resort and Virgin River Hotel, will host the 2018 Elvis Rocks Mesquite competition, and participants are bringing their A-game for an experienced Las Vegas judging panel. Celebrity judge Rich Little, the master of all impersonators, will lead the panel to find the top entertainer who truly embodies Elvis. Little will be accompanied by Steve Beyer, Vegas’ top talent agent, and Genevieve Dew, a veteran Vegas entertainment and singer. Host Kelly Clinton Holmes will keep the energy high throughout the contest, and afterhours events like movies by the pool and a late-night karaoke party with DJ Jimmy Z will keep the fun going all weekend long.
This year, 22 Elvis tribute artists from Arizona, California, Nevada, Utah and even Oklahoma will compete in three preliminary rounds — the ‘50s, the ‘60s, and the ‘70s — in hopes of moving on to the final round for the title and $10,000 in prize money.
The three-day event, which runs from June 21–23, will be filled with entertaining tributes, slick hair, hip-thrusting action, and memorable music performed by some of the greatest Elvis performers out there. Tickets are on sale now and can be purchased at casablancaresort.com or by calling (800) 585-3737. For a full event schedule and more information on Mesquite Gaming, visit mesquitegaming.com.
