- Melinda N10 contributionsWorth going!Great performance! Eli was entertaining and did a wonderful job of impersonating Elvis. If you're looking for big and flashy, this place isn't it. But if you're looking for a quality performance for your money, this is the place. Check it out!Visited March 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 21 March 2023
- K B A8 contributionsA memorable experience to be repeated and for others to not miss when in the area.I have been blessed over the years to have seen several Tribute to Elvis performances. With that being said, Eli Williams performance embodies genuine heart; coupled with a deep sense of respect and appreciation for the artist - legacy Elvis is and was to so many. Within his show, Eli takes his audience on a journey based on Elvis’s timeline of recording achievements while at the same time sharing his own level of true artistry as he displays his craft with such passion. The Main Event Theater is not fancy but rather affords a comfortable and intimate setting, which in turn, allows Eli to connect with his audience on a more personal level. Thus, affording a more meaningful experience. Many thanks to you, Eli, and your gracious wife, for sharing your talent with others to enjoy!!!Visited April 2023Travelled with friendsWritten 4 April 2023
- Stephanie B1 contributionFirst time experience was wonderful!This was as if I was able to go back to a time when I wish I was born. It was a small friendly atmosphere and you can tell there was a lot of pride in this tribute. I hope others take the time to see this if you are an Elvis fan! If you close your eyes you’d swear he was in front of you!Visited April 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 9 April 2023
- dirby5Huron, Ohio31 contributionsElvis show is one of the best shows in Pigeon ForgeThis Elvis tribute show is a wonderful way to spend an evening reliving 3 decades of Elvis's career. Eli is a talented musician and performer. He will keep you entertained for 2 hours. He also does a nice job interacting with the audience and truly appreciates you as an audience member. This show is appropriate for any Elvis fan - from the young to the young at heart. You won't be disappointed. Also, it is a small and personable theater, so there are no bad seats in the house! I will definitely return to see this again.Visited April 2023Travelled with familyWritten 11 April 2023
- Scott G4 contributionsAmazing Show Making MemoriesThe memories we made with my son are unbelievable. My father in law introduced my son to Elvis and this was the next best thing to seeing Elvis in person. My 11 year old sat enthralled throughout the performance. Eli worked the crowd flawlessly and was obviously so into the performance. His military tribute at the end was awesome. I highly recommend this show.Visited April 2023Travelled with familyWritten 13 April 2023
- Josh1 contributionIncredibly Fun!Such a fun show! Eli truly brings Elvis’s music and moves to life in this show! The music is great and the storytelling around the songs is both entertaining and interesting. We got our money’s worth on our visit!Visited April 2023Travelled with friendsWritten 25 April 2023
- Angela C4 contributionsGreat family funLove the location off the parkway. We have been watching Travis for years and he never disappoints. Got to see Eli in January at the Elvis Birthday show and caught his whole show tonight. He knocked it out of the park!Visited April 2023Travelled with familyWritten 29 April 2023
- Jennifer P2 contributions"Spectacular Elvis Tribute at the Main Event Theater in Pigeon Forge, TN"My husband, teenage daughter and I had the pleasure of watching a Tribute to Elvis at the Main Event Theater in Pigeon Forge, TN on July 21, 2023. Eli Williams was absolutely amazing. His performance was spectacular! We loved all aspects of this show. We do not have any negative comments about his performance. All of us were amazed by his artistic ability, charisma, charm, energy, sense of humor, appearance, and overall stage performance and vocal talent. The entire show was devoted solely to Elvis. Eli was very knowledgeable in terms of the life and career of Elvis. I loved how he incorporated this into his show. It is definitely a must see to people of all ages. You don't have to be an Elvis fan to enjoy this show. Although we have been coming to Pigeon Forge for many years, this was our first time seeing Eli's performance. Of all the shows and performances we have seen in Pigeon Forge, this one was by far the BEST! The cost of the show was also very reasonable. Eli is a kind-hearted, humble, sincere and down to earth guy. After the show, he took the time to take pictures and talk with anyone wishing to stay. He took his time to talk with each person without being in a hurry to leave. His wife, Sarah was beyond friendly and welcoming, as well. My daughter just loved her too. Even though the location is not on the main strip, it is definitely worth the time to find it. We will without a doubt be watching him again. I personally think he would have done a wonderful job portraying Elvis in the movie. It was just like watching every aspect of Elvis with an incredible likeness to his voice. #TEAM ELIVisited July 2023Written 24 July 2023

Stewart Chapman as Elvis is incredible. His voice is so identical to Elvis' you think you're hearing the real Elvis (I did see the real Elvis in 1975). Don't let the location (turn west at traffic light #4) and appearance of the venue fool you, the show is fantastic.Highly recommend this show.

This was such an amazing show! We have seen a couple different similar shows but no one was as amazing as Stewart. This is our favorite Theater to go to and it is so so worth it. 10/10 experience and we will definitely be going back. I highly recommend this to anyone who loves Elvis!!

Amazing show and experience. Stewart Chapman was outstanding. Amazing voice, amazing showmanship. His movement and sound were so spot on you felt transported back in time. It’s a wonderful thing that someone so talented is able to so perfectly preserve a legend. A must see.

Main Event Theater is the best value in Pigeon Forge. The hosts, Travis and Renee are such great people. The Elvis Show and the Conway Twitty Show are both amazing. Go. Take the family. You’ll be glad you did!
