It contains a selection of
interesting facts, photos, videos (including
our own) and links on
Elvis and
The ELVIES. The
Porthcawl Elvis Festival, known
to be the biggest event of its kind in the UK and Europe.
In the words of organiser Peter Phillips, "When you put on that jumpsuit (Elvis
costume) this strange
feeling just takes you over. It's magic."!
