THE LARGEST ELVIS FESTIVAL EVER

100 years Parker, 1.000 times Elvis



THE LARGEST ELVIS FESTIVAL EVER

On 26 June 2009 it will be exactly one hundred years ago that Andreas Cornelis van Kuijk (known as Dries) was born in Breda. This Dries, who emigrated to America at the age of nineteen, changed his name into Colonel Thomas A. Parker. Colonel Parker became world-famous as the manager of Elvis Presley. For 22 years, from 1955 till Elvis’s death in 1977, Dries van Kuijk, born and bred in Breda, was the manager of world’s biggest entertainer. As an Elvis Presley fan club we cannot and will not let this unique fact go by unnoticed. On June 25, 26, 27 and 28 ElvisMatters organises a great Parker and Elvis weekend in Breda. This weekend will include several fascinating activities.

In ElvisMatters magazine #24 we wrote: May we ask You to have very high expectations? In the meantime, You know that we always do what we promise! With a team of 4 people, we've worked almost every day the past 15 months to prepare the LARGEST ELVIS FESTIVAL ever. You can find all details about the program on this website, but be sure to download and print the festival guide for '100 Years Parker, 1.000 times Elvis' because there is a lot to see and do during the weekend!
