Big Elvis has become one of my favorite things to do when in Vegas. It's too good to be true. For the mere price of a drink from the bar, you can hear this very talented gentleman sing Elvis songs. Pete Vallee is used to the crowd as he sings some of Mr. Presley's greatest hits from his throne. And he absolutely is adorned in a full white HunkaHunkaBurningLove-esque suit. I was chair dancing and singing along, had a fun time with my mocktail. Yep, they were able to make a drinks without liquor.He plays about 30-45 minutes on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 2pm, 330pm and 5pm at the Harrah's Casino. It's actually great timing to see his short show between meals. He's very nice and if you are too, give him a tip or buy some of his merch.This is soooooo Vegas and I absolutely love the Big Elvis show!

Always a great performance by Big Elvis! Does requests and it's a free show so tip him when you ask for a song. No two shows are alike and well worth it.

I knew Big Elvis when he was very young. He was kind, gentle, very polite and always had his guitar wherever he went. My mama and little children would enjoy every second of his visits to our home as he would play and sing for us and it was always the highlight of our day! We didn't live in Las Vegas a long time, but after he crossed paths with us, we never stopped talking about him and his beautiful voice, and he remained in our thoughts and prayers all of these years, 44 to be exact. We were excited to see he had become famous (which didn't surprise us in the least as he is an amazing entertainer) and we hope to one day go to see one of his shows.

Big Elvis was really a fun show as it was free, unusual in Vegas and Big Elvis can really sing! I think the venue could be nicer and I feel worried for his health. He does not get up from his chair and seems uncomfortable. Big Elvis Is iconic in Vegas, and I pray for his health.

What a fun way to celebrate the 4th, with "Big Elvis"! Did you know "Big Elvis" is the first live show to return to the Las Vegas Strip since all the COVID-19 closures? 5-Stars to Pete Vallee, who has been recognized as one of the top 10 Elvis impersonators in the USA. He's been doing "Big Elvis" for years in Vegas and I can see why. If you close your eyes while he's singing, you'll swear that Elvis was in da House. That impersonation of Elvis' unique singing voice is amazing! He performs seated on a "throne", so don't expect classic non-stop Elvis hip-throbbing moves. During the 40 minute set, there's also fun trivia facts and photos of Elvis on a screen.The Piano Bar at Harrah's is always a fun place to hang. Live music, drinks, and jammed pack crowds are what this place is all about. Uh, wait...scratch the jammed pack crowds now since their COVID-reopening. Tables are definitely spaced far apart, as are the performers from the audience. You can also sit outside, but you won't feel as much a part of the scene. There's also no more sitting by the piano, so the lively vibe has definitely softened a bit, but it is what it is during COVID times. VIVA Las Vegas!!

Big Elvis is the one reason the Mister and I even get near Harrah's. He performs pretty much daily in the piano bar - it's a free show which is awesome!Plan to arrive a bit early to grab a good seat, as BE is very popular for good reason. You'll hear a great mix of the entire Elvis oeuvre - country, rock, even some gospel. Our most recent visit started with Suspicious Minds (the greatest Elvis song IMO), moved on to Unchained Melody and then blew up with Devil in Disguise - complete with an elderly man dancing along in light up devil horns. There's no doubting Big Elvis' talent - his voice is incredible and he really interacts with his audience. I love watching people casually walking by stop dead to listen to him belting out a song or two. Don't miss this great performer - it's wonderful, weird and 100% Vegas.

Big man, even bigger voice. Dude can sing! Tell me what the hell else is there to do on a Monday afternoon on the strip in Vegas? His show is free and pretty darn entertaining. You will be impressed with his much he sounds like the real Elvis! Voice is similar, the moves are not! The most you get out of Big Elvis is a semi-standing shoulder shake (and then he sits back down)! Very friendly guy, takes pictures and will talk with anyone after the show (shows only about 40 minutes long). He genuinely enjoys putting on his show!

Big Elvis performed at my parents private birthday party last week. He was engaging, funny, talented and a genuine incredible act for our guests. My parents have been watching him for nearly 30 years at different venues. I would highly recommend him for a private party or to go see him on the strip at Harrah's.
