This festival is a great collection of people that share a common love of music and not just Elvis music. It's people supporting others with passion and a drive second to none. The music perfomed LIVE at this festival is amazing. The many Bands that perform here are worth the drive, as are the Elvis Performers. I always say try it once. If you're not hooked on the great fun by the end of the day, I'd be surprised. The Collingwood Town and surrounding area of water and mountain are also worth the time. See you all there.

This was my first visit to the Elvis Festival 2012 in Collingwood and we truly enjoyed it from the main street full of Elvi to the finale shows in the theatre of competition. We had a great time when it was all over we went to their after party in a restaurant, open tents, food and entertainment.

I took my Aunt who is terminally ill to this Festival and the wonderful memories we both will have from watching all the people who are trying to sing and dance like Elvis will be unforgettable. It was a festival I will remember for the rest of my life. To see the smile on my Aunt's face and to hear her laugh was priceless. This is a festival I could keep going to year after year. I think this is one of the best, fun filled festivals Ontario has!

I could not beleive the 80 year old woman taking off their clothes and throwing them on stage at the Elvis performers, it was like a step back in time to a great era. We had a ton of fun!

I look so forward to the Elvis festival every year. 5 of us get together and go. We get the same room every year and buy our tickets as a christmas gift to ourselves, and then sit back and wait. We have met the best friends that we will keep forever there. It's the greatest fun you can have I'm sure.

The incredible beauty of Collingwood has been enjoyed by our family for many many years. Collingwood's tribute to Elvis has created an amazing venue for all to explore and the people and friendships developed over the years has grown. We continue to share this Festival with new friends every year. Looking forward to 2012~

This festival was so much fun when we attended it. I decided to get a group together and put a festival on in my community. It took a great group of volunteers and a lot of work but we did it and now are in our 2nd year of the Tweed Tribute to Elvis Festival. So much fun!!!

Visiting the Collingwood Elvis Festival guarantees you the best time ever! I've been attending this great event over the past 10 years or so and again can't wait for this July. The organizers and volunteers do such an amazing job that the whole weekend is virtually flawless. You get to see amazing tribute artists and meet Elvis fans from all around the globe. See you there!

We went for the first time after my youngest saw her very first tribute artist at a local event and was fasinated by the performer. When I told her we could see many tribute artist she was excited to go , she was hooked and I was in my glory being a long time ELVIS Fan something I got form my Mom. The festival was like magic giving our whole Family an experience we all enjoyed and will always remember(not an easy task finding a common interest for a diverse family of many interests).

The Collingwood Ontario Elvis Festival is a hometown musical experience inviting the world to experience The King one more time. On those warm summer nights in July the music seranades as Elvis hopefuls vie for their magical moment on stage. The street has been turned in to a sea of anticipation as the audience cheer on their favourite performer. The multiple stages throughout the town give opportunity to hear each Elvis tribute. The festival culminates with a dance party enjoyed by young and young at heart alike. Clearly the best festival in Ontario and a must see if you haven't experienced this fantastic eventd.

First met KA Denike, Steve Kabokas' manager at this festival. She is energy personified ..she is the one who helped to put this festival so popular...first discovered Steve who is may be the only Canadian and possibly one of a handful of Elvis Tribute artists endorsed by Sam Phillips, the Sun Records founder who discovered ElVis and by The Estate of Elvis Presley. Steve was Elvis Tribute Artist World Champion in 2001..

I have been participating in this festival as a second generation ETA, along side my dad for the last few years. I am excited to have my 5yr old son join us up there this year as a 3rd generation ETA. My kids, wife and I have enjoyed meeting up with so many of our friends, making new friends and enjoying the hospitality during this festival. Good luck to Collingwood Elvis Festival in this competition! Collingwood Elvis Fest brings family, friends and colleuges together to celebrate the life and music of Elvis Presley in a fun filled, action packed weekend!
