Trisha Yearwood to Help Celebrate the Holidays at Graceland

Trisha Yearwood will help kick off the holiday season at Graceland this year. The country singer will be flipping the switch to turn the lights on at Graceland's holiday lighting ceremony.

The three-time Grammy Award-winning artist will head to Elvis Presley's home in Memphis, Tenn., on Nov. 20 for the celebration, which begins at 6PM. While there, she will also perform with patients from Le Bonheur Children's Hospital.

“I love Elvis, always have,” Yearwood says. “I’ve visited Graceland many times, but never at Christmas. I’m incredibly honored to be invited to flip the switch at Graceland’s holiday lighting ceremony this year.”

The lights that Yearwood will be turning on are all original to what Presley and his family had on display while living at Graceland. According to a press release, the original lights include Santa and his sleigh, a life-sized Nativity scene and a driveway lined with hundreds of blue lights.

The Graceland holiday lighting ceremony is free and will also feature a red jumpsuit-clad Santa, who will arrive by limo and be available to take pictures. Those who can't make it to Graceland for the event will be able to listen to it live online and on SiriusXM's Elvis Radio channel (Channel 19).

Holiday festivities at Graceland run from when Yearwood flips the switch until January, when Presley's birthday celebration begins. More information is available on the official Graceland website.
