The King is back: Elvis tribute show coming to Hull’s Bonus Arena

Ben Portsmouth as Elvis

By Simon Bristow

An Elvis Presley tribute show that drew packed out crowds earlier this year is to return to Hull in 2023.

Ben Portsmouth will bring his This Is Elvis show to the Bonus Arena on Saturday, June 24, 2023.

Celebrating the life of the iconic showman and telling the story of The King through the show, the event promises a trip down memory lane, featuring a barnstorming set of many of Presley’s most loved songs from eras including the 1950s, the iconic ‘68 Comeback Special, and Ben's personal favourite, the 1970s Vegas concerts.

A spokesperson for the show said: “With his looks, charm and charisma, Ben continues to amaze audiences with his stage presence, with fans claiming globally ‘this is the closest you will ever get to The King himself’.  What more could you want!?  Come and feel the spirit of Elvis and prepare yourself to be blown away for a spectacular evening.”

Tickets for the event go on general sale on Friday at 10am from Bonus Arena or Ticketmaster.
