General Hospital to hold fan event at Graceland

The Don of Port Charles is about to cross paths with The King of Rock and Roll. General Hospital is holding a one-of-a-kind fan event at the historic Graceland mansion.

The stars of General Hospital love their fans -- and now they're getting an extra special chance to say, "Thank you. Thankyouverymuch."

For the first time ever, Elvis Presley's Graceland will host a special General Hospital-themed fan celebration. The event, which kicks off Friday, January 18, 2019, will include numerous exclusive events held in various locations throughout the Graceland Campus -- including Elvis Presley's Memphis entertainment and exhibit complex, and the AAA-rated Four Diamond luxury resort, the Guest House at Graceland.

Beginning today, fans can purchase tickets for the events at Graceland.com/GeneralHospital. The weekend GH fan fest will include General Hospital-themed parties, such as "The Live Nurses Ball" and the "Metro Court Hotel Lounge Party." There will also be screenings of classic episodes, blooper reels, and never-before-seen content. You can view the complete schedule of events here.

"I'm excited to meet with the fans and have them spend the weekend with the extremely talented cast of General Hospital. It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in a historic location," shared Frank Valentini, GH's executive producer.

And what would a celebration be without some stars? Maurice Benard (Sonny Corinthos Jr.), Steve Burton (Jason Morgan), Briana Nicole Henry (Jordan Ashford), Finola Hughes (Anna Devane), Wes Ramsey (Peter August), James Patrick Stuart (Valentin Cassadine), Josh Swickard (Detective Harrison Chase), Donnell Turner (Curtis Ashford), and Laura Wright (Carly Corinthos) are all scheduled to be in attendance. They will share their favorite memories from the show, answer questions from the audience, and participate in autograph signings and exclusive photo opportunities.

Attendees will have the opportunity to tour Graceland, Elvis Presley's Memphis -- a 200,000 square foot entertainment complex filled with museum exhibits, shops, and restaurants; and Elvis' custom jets.
