LAS VEGAS, Nov. 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — On Friday, November 15, thousands of dancers ignited Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino with an electrifying flash mob that celebrated the legacy of the King himself, Elvis Presley. Marking the 55th anniversary of the iconic venue where Elvis captivated audiences with 636 consecutive sold-out shows, this larger-than-life event brought fans together for a thrilling homage, transforming the legendary casino into the city’s biggest dance club.

In celebration of the Vegas Dance Explosion’s 25th Silver Anniversary, the flash mob showcased a dynamic medley of two beloved Elvis classics, “CC Rider” and “Viva Las Vegas.” The songs were brought to life with a powerful live performance by Images of the King World Champion Ted Torres Martin, the star of Westgate’s new Elvis show, The King Comes Home. As Torres Martin’s vocals played through the property, the crowd performed a high-energy line dance, creating an unforgettable moment that filled the casino floor with the magic and spirit of Elvis. Dancers united from around the world from twelve to 90 years old.
