Celebrate Elvis In Forbes

December 20, 2019 by Maggi Barnard

The 2020 Elvis Festival has a new event in Forbes next year with the addition of A Night on S.S. Mississippi Queen. Guests are asked to immerse themselves in the world of Frankie and Johnny, this year’s Elvis theme, and dine on the banks of the beautiful Lake Forbes on Saturday, 11th January.

“It will be an event like no other,” says Forbes Shire Mayor Phyllis Miller OAM. “Dine under the stars, by our beautiful Lake with a sumptuous three course meal catered by Eat Your Greens, Pantry Cafe and Sweet Three Vintage Van. The entertainment will be amazing with the incredible Raechel Whitchurch and her Bolo Boys performing their Hillbilly Elvis show live. If you are feeling lucky try your luck at our simulated table games.”

The event will be fully licenced and tickets are $90 per person which includes dinner and the Hillbilly Elvis live show. These can be purchased through 123tix.com.au. “Table bookings are advised to ensure you are seated with those you would like to be seated with,” said Phyllis.

“They can be in groups of six or twelve. Please don’t be discouraged if you haven’t got a table full, it will be a wonderful atmosphere to mingle and meet new people. Forbes really knows how to throw an event like this. Good food, good company and of course a good time!”

For more information about A Night on the S.S. Mississippi, contact Forbes Shire Council on 6850 2300.
