Mancini Hall

Christmas with The King is a heartwarming and high-energy holiday showcase starring award-winning Elvis tribute artist Ruben Castillo.

This one-hour interactive performance features many of Elvis Presley’s beloved Christmas classics like Blue Christmas, Santa Bring My Baby Back to Me, and If Every Day Was Like Christmas, brought to life with all the charisma, charm, and vocal brilliance fans expect from The King. But the magic doesn’t stop there—Ruben takes audiences on a festive “what-if” journey, performing holiday favorites Elvis never recorded, reimagined as only he can. From soulful ballads to rockin' yuletide hits, as well as a historical perspective on how Elvis and Americans celebrated the holidays from the 1950s through 1970s, it's a fun-filled family-friendly holiday showcase patrons of all ages will love!

Please register.
