Celebrating Elvis' 75th birthday is a full-year endeavor and it all started with a commemorative anniversary gala which was hosted at Graceland in Memphis on January 8, 2010. In addition to the annual birthday procalamtion ceremony on the front lawn of Graceland, events included exhibits, parties, dances, and panel discussions. Also, a Friday night tribute at the FedEx Forum by NBA's Memphis Grizzlies, wearing blue suede shoes for the occasion; a Saturday night pops concert by the Memphis Symphony Orchestra, with guest TCB Band members Ronnie Tutt, James Burton and Glen D.
