The 14th Annual Collingwood Elvis Festival, the largest of its kind in the world, takes place Thursday, July 24 until Sunday, July 27. The event features some of the greatest Elvis tribute artists in the industry competing for the honor of participating in The 2008 Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist Contest, the official Elvis tribute artist contest, which will be presented by Elvis Presley Enterprises, Inc. in Memphis, Tennessee during the annual 'Elvis Week' festivities in August.

The 14th Annual Collingwood Elvis Festival features more than two dozen Vegas-style shows starring the industry's best Elvis tribute artists, a three-day competition with professional, non-professional and youth categories, a street dance, venue tour, vendor alley, parade, and midway.

A broad ticket price range has been set up to accommodate every budget and each member of the family can enjoy free events and ticketed shows ranging from $5-to-$75.

The festival committee continually seeks to improve the quality of the event while maintaining the same great programming that loyal festival attendees have come to expect over the years. Return visitors will find upgrades to the venue and new activities. Additional shows are being added as the final schedule of events is slated for release by spring. Early ticket sales have been up 13 per cent from the same time last year.
